Republicans clinched their 247th U.S. House seat on Wednesday when GOP challenger Martha McSally officially unseated Rep. Ron Barber (D-Ariz.), bringing to an end the final unresolved congressional election of the midterms and handing the GOP its largest majority in the chamber since the Great Depression.
McSally's narrow win, which came after a recount, means that House Republicans will begin the 114th Congress with a 247-188 advantage over Democrats. It is the largest GOP majority since Republicans claimed 270 seats in the 1928 election.

You make it sound like Boehner is going to fight and not surrender over and over.
Pray America is waking
Can she get that Warthog into the chamber?
To quote Hillary Clinton, “What difference does it make?”
When you have corrupt Republicans like Boehner controlling the House of Representative, even if the Republicans held every single seat in the House, nothing would be accomplished with Boehner as Speaker.
Kudos and mucho pats on the back to Ms. Martha McSally, a new conservative voice in congress who has defeated an Obamabot, Democrat, Shyster, Ron Barber in their Arizona congressional race!!! Well done.....Martha.......we who really know your background are proud of you!!! You did not let the “Useless” Ron Barber steal your win...as so many “weak sister” Republicans have done over the years. You watched their every criminal move.....and, did not the low life, Democrat vermin, bring in illegal votes. Good for you....Sally!!!
And it sounds like you're giving up.
Boehner hasn't been re-elected Speaker for 2015; that'll happen the first 2 weeks in January.
You better believe there are plenty of back room meetings going on among the 'pubs to replace his @ss.
Trey Gowdy is being mentioned for such a position.
Sure, she can mail that Hog in piece by piece and then reassemble it on the House floor!
Ha! Wouldn’t that be a hoot! B^)
Impeach shouldn’t be anywhere near the agenda. All it would do is anger the people, aren’t enough votes for a conviction, and even if it succeeded it would get him out of office maybe 6 months ahead of schedule. 6 months Biden could use to separate himself from Barry and actually gain a slight chance of winning in 2016. An attempt at impeachment would be the stupidest possible move. Shut him down as much as possible, take heart in the fact that the GOP WILL win the presidency in 2016 (even if we run a turkey). Don’t try to over turn an election, it did no good in the 90s and won’t play any better now.
That’s it. I sent my congress critter an email just the other day regarding this garbage and let him have it. I will continue to bomb him with emails because of their crap.
Gowdy and Linda Grahamnesty are too cozy a team for me.
