His job is leading the Republican caucus. And, in this respect, he's done a pretty damn good job.

If Boehner's job title had been House Majority Manager I would agree with this assessment. By virtue of his position he has a lot of face time with the American public. That is his opportunity to sell the story. To explain the vision. To articulate the difference between us and them. At that he has continually been a complete and total failure.

But that's not a Majority (or Minority) Leader's job.

Gingrich wasn't a media star, either. And is Pelosi doing a bang-up job as spokesman for the majority?

One of the problems with being out of power is that it forces people who aren't "front men" into positions of media prominence. Who is the spokesman for the GOP right now?

Clue: There ain't one. And there won't be one until we have a presidential nominee.

That said, given a choice between an effective legislative leader and a "good hair" talking head, I'll take the effective operator every time.
