The wave vote on Tuesday was not about “center of mass” my FRiend, it was about turning the ship around. McConnell and Boehner are not strong enough leaders for that kind of work. I’ll take Cruz and Gowdy too!

I wouldn’t mind seeing Louie Gohmert with the gavel either.

Yes, it was about turning the ship around. But, like it or not, we needed the Left Half of the GOP to help us pull on those ropes. The Mark Kirk fans in Illinois were right there with us.

So I’ll accept your argument that McConnell and Boehner are weak. That could well be. But you are not going to get the other half of the GOP to vote for Cruz and Gowdy. You need to select their replacements from the middle not the far right. That’s real life in politics.
