This action would be an activating cause. We'll see then who will step forward. It wouldn't be from his own circle, so it would have to be someone who thought they could get broad support from the remainder of republicans, less Boehner's cronies.
Here's a start: Republican Reps. Justin Amash (R-MI), Michele Bachmann (R-MN), Dave Brat (R-VA), Mo Brooks (R-AL), Paul Broun (R-GA), Louie Gohmert (R-TX), Paul Gosar (R-AZ), Tim Huelskamp (R-KS), Walter Jones (R-NC), Jim Jordan (R-OH), Steve King (R-IA), Raul Labrador (R-ID), Tom Massie (R-KY), Bill Posey (R-FL), Matt Salmon (R-AZ) and Steve Stockman (R-TX) held the line and voted no.
Wouldn't it be rich if Michele Bachmann stepped up to run against Boehner? Oh...you just thought I was leaving ;-)
