JOHN BOEHNER: The Very Best DemocRAT Speaker Ever!
Posted on 09/08/2015 6:44:56 PM PDT by cotton1706
Rep. Mick Mulvaney (R-SC), one of the 28 Republicans who publicly supports replacing House Speaker Rep. John Boehner (R-OH)with a Republican alternative, told Breitbart News on Tuesday that Boehner does not have enough support within the Republican conference to win re-election with just Republican votes.
Therefore, Mulvaney said, should there be a vote on a privileged resolution on a motion to vacate the chair of the House of Representatives—a fancy term for a vote to remove Boehner from the speakership—the only way Boehner can keep his job is if Democrats vote for him to bail him out.
“The math depends on the Democrats, doesn’t it?” Mulvaney told Breitbart News in a phone interview on Tuesday afternoon. “I think if all the Democrats were to vote against John, he’d lose the Speakership, but I don’t think anyone knows where the Democrats stand.”
Technically, the magic number for Boehner to lose re-election without a Democrat infusion or some kind of shenanigans where members don’t show up to vote or something akin to that is 29 Republicans voting against him. There are 28 Republicans publicly opposed to Boehner’s re-election, but many more privately who have confirmed that they can’t vote for Boehner to Mulvaney and others. Many more are teetering on the edge of becoming public, and Boehner’s team is certainly terrified, as Politico’s Jake Sherman and John Bresnahan detailed on Tuesday morning.

What, he hadn’t already?
That was a done deal...long ago!!
Of course the Dems will bail him out. It’s a perfect situation for them. They bail Bonehead’s rear out of the fire and set up a scenario where his own party will likely not follow him and he becomes the Dem lapdog even further.
“He will not survive unless he prostitutes himself with the enemy”
Isn’t that what he did in the last bunch of votes that were supposed to go our way?
I’m sick of hearing “Boehner and a number of his allies voted with the Democrats to produce a narrow win for President Obama”
The pieces of silver must be rattling in his pockets

Is Winteregg worth supporting? A primary challenger is the only thing this creep will understand.
Thad Cochran was in the same boat last year, and the Dems did bail him out.
Umm...he’s already done that.
There is no apparent heir apparent. I want JB roasting on a spit, but who will be 2nd in line in Succession?
It’s going to be something when crying Boehner has Nancy bail him out.
He should change his name to Nancy Boy.
Nancy’s boy...
LoL.
Thanks - checked it out
A very good question. I have no answer. What with the current “collection of congresscritters” it’s anybodies guess.
Pull my thumb....
Obama’s probably on the phone daily rounding up Democrat support for Boner. Obama can’t afford to lose a key reason for his second term ‘successes’.
Notice how he takes a quick glance to his left. Who is he signaling to?
His puppeteer?
Boehner lacks... 30
Something going on there.
