The intimidation and pressure was intense, there are a lot of people that wanted to vote no and today, the last call, the last twisting of arms, convinced them not to do that, Huelskamp said. ...and they fell for it. From Boehner. No wonder Obama goes unchecked. These cowards wilt in front of Caspar Milquetoast.

There must be more to the allure of the committee chairmanships than a silly gavel to tap. It must have to do with campaign donations. I’m afraid we will never fix the problem considering the lack of information of Republican primary voters and their miserable nominees.

Eric Cantor must have had the boot shoved up his behind. Wouldn’t be surprised if he’s knocked down a peg or two.

What we need is enough Americans who will stop giving to the RNC and start giving to conservative super-PACs. Then a threat to remove RNC funding wouldn’t have any impact.

I can’t imagine many conservatives being happy with this vote. I also can’t imagine conservatives contributing to the GOP when they have been stabbed in the back so. I know I won’t.

Asked specifically who was intimidated to cast their votes for Boehner, Huelskamp declined to name names. I'd love to know. These people would be in line for whatever help I could provide after paying my Boehner-McConnell-Zero tax increases.

If they were only half as brave as they are against conservatives we would be in a better place.
I for one will never support idiots like King in NY. The guy is a waste of space. All he does is say stupid things in front of the camera, as far as I can tell. Just like Schumer. Must be a NY thing.

Cantor voted against the fiscal cliff deal, which raised taxes on a majority of Americans, but he voted for Boehner for speaker. Sure he voted against it after he was assured it would pass despite his no vote. Fning weasel

Chances that Boehner will be crying at his swearing in ceremony? 95 percent yes he will.

Yet before this thread ends, many ‘conservatives’ will tell us why this is good and why Bhoner/GOP style governance it the only choice.
I am more embarrassed by the moment. Until these people are ourged from the movement, we will never purge their gods from DC.
Simple math.
To: Timber Rattler
Over 90 percent of the Republicans we elect have no principles.
That is the bottom line that came out here.
Speakers have power to twist arms in every legislature.
Leaders control their individual party members who are free only to make noises with passionate speeches, not act on principle.

Bonehead will lead the GOP to the minority in 2014.
He was a weak leader to star with, he is much weaker now.
He has divided the GOP, not united it.
