Disagree although it sounds like the correct procedure under the circumstances I would like to point out that the insiders will run circles around the newbie’s allowing the newbie elect to be left in the dust.

The newbie has to come in with good basic knowledge of how their new environment operates, and they must be in total control of all of their communications, and their actions.

I’m not saying be rude, be untouchable, just cautious, and question everything, and everyone until the correct course becomes the obvious course.

The established incumbant RINO’s especially will attempt to take advantage of the newbie status, the early bewilderment, and confusion to establish their pecking order, and lead the newbie down their path.

The newbie must be strong, and must be willing to spend the time building a wall against those established incumbants circling them twirling leashes as they attempt to round up, and corral the newbies for their own pleasures. The incumbants want the newbies to do precisely what they want them to do.

The Party Brass tried to do this to Sarah Palin after the 2008 election. Sarah wisely rejected them.

Agree. Boehner is too much an incumbant RINO IMO.

Well, and it is amazing that it is "Republican lobbyists" who are helping this along. How about, instead of bringing in experienced Congressional hands, they bring it folks who can read and write the mother tongue (English), or understand economics or defense issues or some such relevant experience.

Of course what is really needed are a bunch of staffers who have all the right lobbyists and campaign financiers in their rolladex and are ready to start doing deals and trading pork.

“Establishment Republicans”, “Elitist Republicans”, and RINOS are blocking true conservatism from taking root, for the long-term and to the best of abilities! This needs to be successfully resolved, asap, if true, healthy conservatism is to succeed!

If the GOP doesn’t produce THIS TIME they are FINI! This sounds like a “business as usual” move.

I am an outsider, who has lots of political experience. I would probably do a better job than those “Veterans” and maintain my strong stances.

How about putting DeMint and Coburn out there to help the new ones or maybe someone conservative from the newly formed tea party caucus?

Yes, Boehner needs to go.
So does Can’tor.
They want to put staffers in with the Tea Party caucus who “work well” with themselves.
In other words, people who will advise the new Reps to vote for Boehner and Can’tor for leadership, and not rock the boat by supporting one of the Tea Party’s own, such as Mike Pence.
This is all a cynical power play by the ineffectual leadership to protect their leadership positions.

Goodness, I was agreeing with you.

The idiots is for the politicians, not you.

No offensive is meant towards you. Sorry.

Conservatives have to keep fighting just as hard after the election.
