All that is needed is “16” Republican House members to ‘block’ Boehner from being the “Speaker”.

There are 435 seats. Republicans control 233, D’s 202. If “31” decide to vote for someone ‘other’ than Boehner, then Pelosi would get the Speakership.

It’s high time that the “conservatives” declare war on the Republican Party!

Why is it that the Republic has evolved to the point that some Congressmen are “more equal” than others? Was that originally a part of the constitution? Who says there has to be a House Leader? Why can’t they all just assume power as equals?
