A breakdown, by representative would be helpful. Does anyone know where we could get such a list?

We would need the record of the Caucus votes for the leadership. That should identity most of them.

As for the rest, just watch the news and cspan they will reveal themselves through their speeches.

At present, it's virtually impossible to compile such a list. Boehner was re-elected Speaker pretty much unanimously by the caucus -- so there is no record of who, exactly, is anti-Boehner.

Moreover, nobody has ever announced an intention to run against him. And the caucus knows that, if they vote against him...and lose, they would be sacrificing their committee chairmanships -- even their committee assignments.

Accordingly, there won't be a meaningful show of hands until somebody announces he's running against Boehner AND he's got a real chance of winning.

Damn right. We need to start an all-out war with Boehner and his supporters. This is getting criminal.

Could it not be more obvious that he’s an Obama enabler? A liberal in sheep’s clothing?

They all are.

Except for Gohmert apparently.

If Boner in fact tricked them via dishonesty and deception into voting for something that they do not believe in and betrays their consituents, where are the republicans saying we were deceived?

Where are the republicans saying John Boner lied to us therefore we will be replacing him as Speaker?

That’s right, they are no where, except for Gohmert.

They weren’t tricked. We are being tricked.

All but a dozen did the last time and all but 25 or 30 are likely to do so in this leadership vote and I’m convinced some of them will do it to look good since all Boehner will need are 218 votes to get over the top.

Politicians will vote NO on something they really want as long as the YES side wins because it makes them look conservative with the folks back home.

Over 200 Republicans in the House will end up supporting Boehner this time which means there will be 200 plus Republicans to oppose in the 2016 primaries and general election.

I don’t vote for the 95 percent of Republicans who fake conservatism in general elections anymore.

Write-in a name or run a conservative independent....

My Republican Congressman Scott Perry of Pennsylvania is a Boehner supporter, voting for him two years ago and having him in the district for a fundraiser....

Good idea, but it won’t do any good until we first properly deal with RINO voters. As long as there are voters willing to hold their nose and vote for the Republican simply because they have an “R” next to their name will keep these guys in power.

We need to continue an apolitical legal counsel group like the TParty so as to grow independently fo either party and then field our own candidates under the R name or D name, matters not, so long they follow reconstructing America.
