Of course. Those who dared to come out against him were already on his “$#!T list” and weren’t going to be getting any favors anyhow, so had nothing to lose.
Now riddle me this:
How many conservatives are there within the 435 member House of Representatives?
Exactly 28 voted for someone other then Boehner, just one vote short of the magic number. So, where were the conservatives?
Conservatives? The whole Washington empire is corrupt and mostly communists.
The problem is that this vote is public; I’d like to see this one vote be secret, we’d have had better numbers. Even if we got to 29, odds are that he’d pull off a win in the end; it’s too risky to vote against him publicly.
