I think Mr. Boehner may be going out with a bang will have a ****-it year.Because there were a few moments when conservative's were drunk on Reagan's, "the government is not the solution, the government is the problem", Boehner was convinced that he had enough political capital to shut down government. A gross miscalculation on his part mistaking a temporary fashion with a long term shift in American values.
He's not just doggin Mr. Obama as intransigent.
He's blaming his own caucus by saying He did as they wanted him to.
I believe the GOP message will be sharper after this retreat they're at in MD.Now that he has committed himself to that position, and the ground beneath him has shifted, he's stuck holding the bag.
DEMs are giving up on the House but better not lose too many House seats.
When you have Senators like Cruz as part of your House caucus, you haven't won anything in 2014 yet,He's nothing if not a consummate politician, so perhaps he can dig himself out, but I don't see how. He just may have to be sacrificed along with those who sucked him in, to the rebuilding of the party. I frankly would hate to be in his shoes.
and the GOP faces far more divisive primaries and a greater number of both TEA and RINO primaries than DEMs .
Mr. Boehner has the ****tiest job in DC.
He needs all of our prayers .
