John Boehner is only the speaker of the House until January 20th. Some time before then, the Republican caucus will have to meet to elect the speaker for the next House.

What conservative should take Boehner’s place?

Tell him we’ll talk, AFTER you repeal Obamacare. Otherwise, you can wait for us to continue to defund it and to vote down every single tax you propose.

Trent Franks. He’s a pretty solid guy. But he’s not telegenic.

The only hope for America is that in four years we face a disaster that makes 2008 look like a Sunday picnic.

It won't take four years.

I prefer to wait before chatising him untill he actually says he will raise taxes or allows it to happen. Not because some news source twists his words to that effect.

You didn’t answer the question. Are you saying he does not cave regularly?

i actually LOVE the quote. Boehner is shoving it back in his face.

“Mr. President, this is your moment,” Boehner told reporters, speaking about the “fiscal cliff” that will hit in January. “We want you to lead.”

Boehner said House Republicans are asking Obama “to make good on a balanced approach” that would including spending cuts and address government social benefit programs.

“Let’s find the common ground that has eluded us,” Boehner said...

Extending your hand, or anything else, over to the other side will result in pulling back a nub!

Well excuse the F out of me. I do not agree with offering olive branches to Barry Benghazi. They are going to OWN their garbage. We do NOT sign our name under ANYTHING. We force them to OWN their leftwing policies. As soon as one Republican signs on they will hang their terrible policies around OUR necks. I don’t think so.

Boehner needs to be primaried. Let’s find the best and brightest in his district and let’s get rid of this crybaby buffoon extraordinaire. Boot his ass out.

Of course you’re right. But the GOP is afraid of a media brow beating. Only Superman could withstand that.

Obama, Pelosi and Reid wouldn’t hesitate. I don’t know who’s worse, them, or our gutless cowards.

Bonehead and Cantor MUST GO. NOW!
The voting machines haven’t even cooled down yet and he’s
surrendering. Another Kabuki Dance in coming the lame duck
session. Get ready to bend over.

I still say give them everything they want. Let the 60 Million idiots who voted for this failure get a true taste of what they voted for. I’m sick of Republicans/Conservatives cleaning up their mess.

DEFEAT HIM! HE’S A CRYING FOOL! I said many times in the past that Mike Pence should of been the Speaker of the House, instead, ever since the GOP regained control of the House! John Boehner is a RINO fool!

Harry-ass-Reid made it clear that he would not, under any circumstance work with a Romney administration!

Now, every one is demanding the winners of the U.S. House of Representatives reach across the isle and kiss the socialist democrats fat asses!

I sent an email to a friend of mine just after is was projected Obumbum would win, stating: “I give it about 6 seconds before the RINO’s reach across the isle to help the democrats raise our taxes!”

Nailed it again! This is why no one votes for Republican establishment RINO’s! you put them in a bag shake them up and no one knows who comes out first!

Time for a third party representing real conservatives who will support and actually defend the constitution!
