I have to say, I think we can thank Donald Trump for this Whip straw poll on Boehner.
Trump has laid out a little brass, and emboldened even the House moderates to vote the truth— that Boehner is vanilla at best, and an Obama sycophant at worst. What ever he is, he’s not one of us.
‘The Trump affect’
Boehner’s punishing of people that disagree with him has gotten out there. They are brave enough to talk about what he does if you don’t vote his way. The people don’t like this and are becoming informed.
...and for many things...
Trump lives inside the GOPe OODA loop
(just like Palin does for the GOPe and the dims....what a great team they would make)
