He doesn't get out there and talk to the American people

I was watching him on CSPAN and I thought he did well. The MSM has no interest in interviewing him and Fox News is too busy covering topics like Michael Jackson.

He did alright when he did his ‘filibuster’, but he was still ineffective and still didn’t stop the Cap’n Tax from passing.

If he had been out in front of this all along, perhaps he could have cultivated the sort of opposition Republicans needed to stop it.
But I don’t think he has the charisma necessary to move an issue.
When he talks, people just go ‘eh.’
He really puts the ‘eh’ in Boehner.

The MSM has no interest in interviewing him

Of course they don't.
Boehner has no personality.
He has the charisma of tofu.
Any news outlet that interviewed him would see their rating crater for that segment.
Watching Boehner talk is like watching paint dry.

If the GOP had a more electrifying leader, they would not have any problem getting media attention.
Newt Gingrich never had problem getting the media, and America, to tune in.
That is how the GOP won so many battles throughout the 1990s.
Boehner is more Bob Dole than Newt Gingrich.
