We need to light up the phones. Less than 20% of voters want Speaker Boehner. It is time to rise up and throw that drunk slob out!
Agree - I just called my Reps office in DC (too early here to call the local office) and was very pleasant but said I’ve supported him but if he votes for Boehner, I may not in the future, etc., etc. about Boehner and it isn’t just me and referred him to Boehner’s facebook page for comments if he wanted to know what many across the country thought. Told him I wanted the Rep to vote for Rep Gohmert, who I think would make a fabulous Speaker.
Also called Rep Gohmert’s DC office and said I supported him and he had a lot of support across the country (suggested that if he hadn’t done so yet, he may want to check out FR). Told him I hope he knew he worked for a fabulous man.
I was a little surprised I got through to a live person at both DC offices.
I cannot imagine that Tom McClintock (CA) — a staunch conservative — will vote for Boehner, but I sent a note anyway and I asked him to work to persuade others in the caucus to do likewise.
