Comments about ‘If John Boehner goes, look outside Washington for the next speaker’

In my many years I have come to a conclusion that one useless man is a shame, two is a law firm and three or more is a congress. - John Adams

I would hope that the Repubicans in the House select a moderate, not an extremist like Boehner (or Ryan). Somehow, though, I don't see that happening.

Are there any Republican moderates left?

The political purity witch hunts the GOP has conducted the last 10 years has run off everyone 0ne itsy - tiny click mark left of extreme-far-right-wing outer-limitsville.

To hear it, 98% of the Republican Party is RINO.

Holy Cow, Look what THEY did to Mitt Romney -- their OWN guy!

I say - let them go....

Boehner is being vilified for addressing fiscal issues no one else will face, The left is racing toward the Greek model and wants the right to "compromise," which means do it our way. The rigidity of both Democrats and Republicans is evident in their inability to come to the center. Obama's radical left will not let him compromise and the tea party will punish any who compromise.
