They’re the failing engine on the race car until it comes in for a pit stop (election). Not much you can do until it’s time.
Sure. Lesser evil voters are still calling and supporting him. Same as last time.
Oh, and thats what happens when people go all pragmatic instead of electing principled leaders. THEY get ‘pragmatic’ too.
Because the entrenched establishment in Washington is fighting to keep them.
Because there are too many Boner and McConnell clones in the Republican House.
G.O.P.e
I ensured my RINO rep knew exactly where I stand on throwing out Boehner.
You forget the first two rules of being a congressman
1. Get re-elected...
2. Keep you plum committee seat...
Both leaders have huge sway in both...they aren’t going any where until 2016...
most of the gop congress is very happy with boehner and mcconnell. it just has to look unhappy for certain gullable gop voters.
Because Boehner is showing some willingness to go along with conservatives.
I doubt he’ll do enough though.
This all comes to a head in about a month when deadlines on budget, debt, and other actions occur.
Until then it’s in negotiation.
Changing Leadership is a very difficult and, obviously, disorganizing thing to do.
But I think it will come to that.
The answer is REALLY SIMPLE...
MONEY.
They got it, they control it, and you need it to get reelected, in an era where even the the most remote congress seats cost millions every two years to keep.
When are we going to stop pinning our hopes on the GOP? Nothing will change. They’re just as much as the enemy as the Democrats.
“If there are other ideas out there to rid these bums from office for betraying the mandate of those who got them re-elected, let’s hear them.”
NEVER give money to the RNC, or any state GOP.
Give to candidate directly instead.
I give to my Senator Cruz and Rep Gohmert only. Cornyn is someone who needs to be primaried as he supports traitor McConnell
Because McCarthy and Ryan, the so-called “Young Guns” will not support a coupe de etat of their respected elders.
Because 0dungo has weaponized his NSA (just like his IRS) to dig up the dirt ON EVERY CONGRESSMAN to get the outcome he desires? Oh yeah, and SCOTUS too.
Because we have a fascist uniparty government we don’t control. Next question...
For the same reason The Don and Clary are surging in the polls. We are tired of garbage!!!!!!!!!
We have been demanding for decades. They aren't listening. That is why I am no longer a pubbie. The last time some poor fool called, asking for money, I called him every name in the book, before I slammed the phone down.
Congress is nothing more than a culture of corruption.
It’s no more complicated than that.
They are failing because their spines are jelly, too.
Recall Bachmann ALMOST tried and backed down.
Recall 2 years later the conservatives ALMOST tried again and backed down.
If they actually force the issue, they might have to vote, and they might win — what the H would they do then?
Because if you shoot at the king then you had better not miss. And most of the GOP caucus aren’t convinced that the conservatives have enough votes to replace Boehner.
