Rebellion ended ONE vote short.There WAS no "rebellion", IMO.
Boehner was again allowing himself to take fire to provide cover for his more conservative members. That's why he's so popular.
I don't think the election was ever in doubt.
Rush predicted last week it would fall one vote short. All theater folks. Rothman voted for Boehner after promising that he wouldn't. Still have people they haven't accounted for. Rush says hard for him to believe the whole thing wasn't designed as a tease.
