If you PO enough of the TEA party congressmen, they could become Independents (or a third, TEA Party), leaving the RATS with the majority & the Speaker-ship.
Many were shocked by Bonie’s blubbering on television. Why?
What must happen over the next year will require the hutzpah of a man in the mold of Tom DeLay, and we know it!
Boener does NOT fill that bill, now you can bet that even as we speak, some in the Republican Caucus are preparing to challenge his otherwise presumed unanimous selection.
Mark my words. The Dems will play Boener like a fiddle, and he will fold on issues that need hard lines maintained. This has been the pattern of establishment Republicans, and we do not need any more of it.They sell out the people.
BTW, I always seem to have trouble spelling progressive politicians names. I just can’t figure why.
The GOP is where it is today because of the conservative vote.And we demand a conservative speaker of the house.
Boener just won’t cut it:
1)
Rep. John A. Boehner’s vote last month against a bill cracking down on illegal immigration is sending “tremors” through the House Republican Conference as the Ohio lawmaker pushes his candidacy for House majority leader.

Boehner is leading the charge to de-fund ACORN, but in the same breath he is willing to support the campaign of this alleged Republican, Dede Scozzafava:

WE HAVE HAD ENOUGH!!!!!!!!!!
We want and need a conservative speaker with backbone, and the inflexible will to forward the conservative agenda of Death Care repeal and tax cuts. Boener is not the man for the job.His record clearly shows that.Eric Chantor is no better.
One of these Republican leaders would do MUCH better:
Paul Ryan
Darrell Issa
Marsha Blackburn

Now progressives can waive your bi-partisan wand for Boener all you want. It will not change his record. And for same reason you do not understand that every time Republicans achieve power they knuckle under to the Dems bi partisan meme. WHY? Power is meant to be exercised on behalf of conservative voters who fueled this win, and no need to apologize either.
The dems are afraid that they will get some of their own medicine and they fear the conservative agenda. Republicans were LOCKED OUT of the legislative conference on death care. Pelosi even changed the locks on the congressional conference room doors to keep Republicans out, and now the Dems plead for bi partisanship?
Buahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
We need to exercise some authority and unity to get the conservative agenda done.Boener and Chantor will not do that IMHO.
ITS TIME!!!
WE HAVE HAD ENOUGH!!!!!
Boehner is NOT one of our guys. No matter how much he mouths the right things, he is an old line party pol and big government Republican. He believes in personal perks over any sort of principle. So long as it suits his own position he is a Conservative but he cannot be counted on to make proper appointments. Doesn’t Senate Majority Leader need election?
If this is a new day for the GOP...they need new faces in leadership.

We get to vote for the candidates. We don’t get to vote on who they pick for roles in the Congress.
I think Michelle would be a fine choice though.
Whoa, there, Norm. You just inspired a Vanity. I've got two or three to write tonight, and it's getting late.
Cheers!
Bohner need to be tossed out on his ass!!!
