What a great idea you have just come up with!

[The Sons of Liberty]

Excellent idea! Almost anyone would be better than Weeper of the House Boehner.

[morphing libertarian]

Did Ryan run for the house?

[Tennessee Nana]

Ryan better get rid of those liberal leanings that rubbed off Willard onto him in the last few months...

We need a Conservative leader in the House...

[Clintonfatigued]

That sounds like a great idea, but Paul Ryan is too much the nice guy to run against Speaker Boehner. Maybe if Boehner retires it’ll happen.

[workerbee]

I don’t have a representative.

Good luck, though.

[tennmountainman]

I like your thinking. By-Pass Bonehead AND Cantor.
Make Ryan Speaker!

[kgrif_Salinas]

Concur. Get rid of Boehner - compromising weasle.

[mikrofon]

If he was qualified to be President of the Senate, he should be eminently qualified for this position.

He can always “run” for the job at the start of the next session, but of course it depends on TPTB...

Reince Preibus, Walker and Ryan were the three Wisconsin horsemen who were supposed to save the party. Walker didn't get Right To Work through the Wisconsin legislature; Preibus, joined to walker at the hip, just managed to lose the presidential race worse than McCain; and now you want to put Ryan in charge of the House after he got through failing to come through for the team?

Naw, he needs more seasoning.

BTW, the Speaker of the House need not be a member ~ they can pick who they wish. I can think of a dozen people I'd rather see in there.

[From The Deer Stand]

Boehner has to go, and he can take McConnell with him.

[DannyTN]

I think you would lose the House in 2 years if you did that.

I give Ryan credit for trying to balance the budget. But his approach was entirely wrong. He focused on cutting entitlements instead of getting people back to work. Get people back to work, you have a lot more money for entitlements even as you have less demand for entitlements.

Put Ryan is tainted as cold hearted at this point, and until you overcome that, you can’t put him in as speaker of the house without that same taint extending to all GOP.

[KGeorge]

Great idea!

[Wuli]

if I was in there, he’d have my vote

[Electric Graffiti]

After the march on Washington D.C. and the 2010 elections......The mandate was given to the ‘Republicans’——FIGHT G DAMN YOU!!!

Boner played with himself and appeased Obama. This is the main reason Repubican voters were not that enthusiastic this election. Kick that cry baby alcoholic out of the speaker’s seat.

[Vendome]

Absolutely....

[Tex-Con-Man]

Hugh Hewitt was interviewing Rep. John Campbell last night after Obama won and the subject of Paul Ryan as House Speaker came up...Campbell would not rule out the possibility.

My choice is Allen West...but no matter, Boehner must go.

[Arthurio]

Many of us may not like Boehner, but he has basically flown under the radar. It may be one of the reasons why the House majority was basically untouched, even though the GOP was being pummeled everywhere else.

A high profile Speaker is risky (as we saw with Gingrich).

[elkfersupper]

Nope, time to make Ron Paul Speaker of the House.

America at large has no respect for his talents and leadership. Maybe the House of Representatives will.

[myrabach]

Brilliant idea!!!!
