Powerful GOP leader Eric Cantor was defeated by Dave Brat in Virginias Republican Primary mainly over amnesty for illegal aliens and over-spending. Now is it time for some famous conservative to rent a townhouse just outside Springfield, Ohio, and start campaigning against Speaker of the House John Boehner in the 8th Congressional District (C.D.)?
People will believe that the campaign manager who knocked off Eric Cantor can do it again to John Boehner. We should field Zachary Werrell, the brilliant young campaign manager who engineered Brats astonishing upset over Cantor, despite being vastly outspent.
Establishment Republicans have already betrayed their campaign promises and lurched back to their liberal base course. Immediately after Republican victories, they passed the CRomnibus Bill spending $1.1 trillion in fiscal year 2015 and fully funding Obamacare and Obamas unconstitutional executive order amnesty. Boehner allowed Obama and outgoing Democrat leaders to tie the hands of the new Republican Congress for a year.
In January, Republicans will seat more Congressmen in the U.S. House than at any time in 83 years. Yet with 69 of the nations 99 legislative houses now controlled by the GOP, Boehner and soon-to-be Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell flipped the Republican Party the middle finger.
By contrast, there are plenty of charismatic, popular, and conservative Republican leaders like Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, Rand Paul, Mike Lee, and more. They are fighting hard to implement the Republican Partys core goals. There are far more honest Republicans than the small inner circle leading the Party astray.

Stockman...... Stockman?, oh yeah he’s the guy who threw his hat in the Texas Senate Primary ring who promptly went into exile as a strawman for Cornyn. Yeah, let’s run him.
The Boehner damage will be complete by the time he’s up again in 2016. Any moving a strong conservative into 8th District should have been done in 2013.
Caddell has sure sounded more conservative than lots of GOPers, for a long time, even though he’s a life-long dem.
He is not so dem as to not be able to put America first.
You ever consider that maybe Sarah doesn't want to run the Republican Party. Never met her but I suspect she does not want that job.
Now that you’ve explained the process, it’s worth a try. It will shock a lot of people outside of Ohio, who though O’Donnell was fated to remain a part of the past. Yes, she will get attention, and it will happen immediately. Maybe someone can help to prep her for readiness.
But this time Christine, stay off of Bill Maher’s show, until after you help us remove The Boehner. This would be a true David and Goliath story. Reince Priebus would no doubt travel the talk show circuit making snide remarks about her. Reince needs to be weeded out as well.
Sarah Palin would be the best choice. Sarah Palin would beat John Boenher like a toy drum.
Remember that Ohio’s 8th Congressional District is not an urban area. It is mostly rural. The only thing keeping Boehner in that seat I think is not having anyone big enough to challenge him.
In fact, the person to beat John Boenher does not automatically become Speaker. But Sarah Palin could even have a very good shot at being elected Speaker by the GOP house for her trouble if she knocked off the king, John Boehner.
We can wish.
Jenny Beth Martin...now there’s a real scam artist whose been living off the donations of unsuspecting, concerned citizens since 2009.
She went from bankruptcy to living in a mansion in a gated, lake community on the donations of true Patriots.
Google her name...there’s plenty.
Maybe taster for Jack Daniels.
Regarding Jenny Beth Martin, no true conservative believes what critics of other conservatives say. Anyone who has been around the block a few times as a conservative fails to realize that any effective conservative comes under withering attacks and smears to try to cripple the entire movement.
I remember how Northern Virginia tea party activist Marta Saltus came up to me in 2011 at CPAC and spontaneously sputtered in anger that she knows “THEY ARE ATTACKING *ME* and all conservative women” when they attack Sarah Palin, Michelle Bachmann, Sharron Angle, Christine O’Donnell, etc.
Marta Saltus was sharp enough to realize that they are trying to tear down the conservative movement by attacking anyone who is making a difference, one by one, individually.
You are obviously too young, but they attacked Ronald Reagan far worse. They said things 100 times worse about Ronald Reagan than whatever you think you can find on Google.
As for fund-raising, you also need to learn that most of the money raised for a conservative organization goes to THE UNITED STATES POSTAL SERVICE.
The single biggest chunk of the total amount raised by a conservative organization is for POSTAGE.
After that is printing costs, handling, etc.
Only a very small sliver of the total amount raised ever finds its way to the organization itself.
WHY?
Because we don’t have corrupt government contracts illegally funneling money to conservative organizations.
We don’t have Solyndra scams taking billions of dollars out of the Treasury and funneling it to political leaders.
We don’t have unions scamming their membership to support our party.
We don’t have use foundations hijacked by liberals writing us huge checks.
Conservative Americans cannot afford to wait 2 years in HOPES of beating Boehner at the polls. If they don’t, should they wait 2 more years, rinse & repeat every 2 years until our country is an impoverished USSA?
The immediate way to depose Boehner is for 60 Conservative Congressmen threaten to change their party affiliation to Independent, leaving Boehner without a majority in the House, losing his Speaker’s job to Pelosi.
I seriously doubt Boehner would allow that to happen to the Party. I doubt the GOPe would let it happen, either. It could easily destroy the GOP & be the beginnings of a REAL conservative party. Dumping Boehner is a cheap price to pay to maintain the majority in the House.
This tactic would make it clear the House conservatives mean serious business, & there is little substantive Boehner could do about it.
If the House tactic is successful, the Senate Conservatives could do the same thing to McConnell.
The “wait until next time” (WUNT) crowd doesn’t seem to see the crises this nation faces financially, socially, & world wide. Frankly, I thing the WUNT crowd are really the GOPe trying to maintain their hold on power, regardless of what this does to Americans.
