Speakers who step down almost always resign from Congress as well. Hard to be a rank-and-file member after being Speaker and be fair to the new leadership. And probably no fun.

Sounds about right. Alcoholism is a progressive condition. If left unchecked/untreated it grows steadily worse. It has likely become too bad for even some Boehner supporters to countenance.

Glad I wasn’t a part of whatever conclave this decision was made in. The waterworks were probably a bit much.

Kevin McCarthy is just a younger, probably more sober version of Boehner. Cantor and Paul Ryan wrote a book with McCarthy called, Young Guns."

A funny part of me is thinking, now that the FBI has Hillary’s server and has managed to pull up emails..then Boehner resigns.

Okay, probably should loosen my tin foil hat a bit.
