GOP implosion.
Suicide. Those that voted for him think he will live up to any deal? Idiots.

26 Republicans dissent. Had this many Republicans voted against Boehner at the start of the 113th, it would have gone to a second ballot.”

Im really starting to wonder about Rushs level of concern for the country given his non involvement in this vote.
Rush never recommends, or gets involved. It’s kind of sad that he wastes his influence.

Congress critters are cowards. Purge all the females because I believe it is their estrogen which emasculates the men, causing them to become GUTLESS. One giant body of GUTLESS political opportunists.

I'm out....screw the primaries, I'm going (I). There's no sense in playing this game anymore. We may as well spend our time figuring out which democrats to vote for. It's the same outcome every time; extreme disappointment.

I am waiting here to see what plan you folks actually bring forward. Harping on what not to do is not a plan. Nor is hurling insults.

I will not vote for another Republican in any election. The party has to die.

Theater. A lot of the rebels are fake - they were allowed to be rebels to fool folks back home. If their vote had been needed, it would have been for Boehner.

I dont know about smart money but 1 of 2 things happens. He squeaks by as most are gutless cowards as I an others have long bitched about, or he loses decisively in a mass revolt.
I go with squeaks by in kabuki theater.

It was all theater. Boehner is doing what the beltway GOP wants. So they made him Speaker again.
Until a patriot pulls a Tom Steyer and promises $100 million to defeat RINOs this will continue. That would change some votes. Guaranteed.

28 Pubbies just lost. They will be lucky to get scraping from the bottom of the barrel.
At least they were courageous to try.
In 2012, it was Bachmann and a couple of others who lost their backbones.

You did not really think that once elected, that the politicians would listen to their constituents versus the ones giving them money behind the scenes, did you?
