I get your all's point about Boehner, but, quick check of facts here, how many Democrats voted for this bill?
Boehner has plenty of men in his caucus to pass this bill without a single Democratic vote. The Democrats are wisely refusing to play his game.
Pelosi has made it very clear that if Boehner simply lets the Senate bill come to the floor, her caucus will support it. So a divided Republican caucus would supply more than enough votes.
