Republican voters wanted the shutdown and if they would have stuck to their guns they would have an even bigger win.
Pray America is waking
It was reported in the BBC of all places that the republicans were winning the defund battle until Boehner caved.
Boehner is a loser that is being carried by winning conservatives because they couldn’t see what a loser he was when they came into power in 2010 sweep.
Boehner does not know how to lead and does not know how to be seen as a winner. He does not know how to put together a winning vision, a winning message. He is a go-along to get-along guy. He is always viewed as a bumbler and a loser. The press finds it easy to hang him out to dry for everything. He’s just not quick enough; not smart enough.
Obama is pissed because he actually lost to a bigger loser, Boehner. But Boehner is not the force that created the win. That force was the GOP base that held their noses yet again because the stench from Obama was too awful to put up with. Boehner should not think for one second that he had anything to do with the win except being carried by the surge of the base.
