2012 was a warning to the house GOP. Either move to the right or be replaced.

Simple, straight and inarguable.

The GOP-e brain trust and their assorted online toadies, therefore, will blink uncomprehendingly at it.

“anyone but Boehner” I agree.

Speaker Palin?

Be still my beating heart.

That would be perfect. In fact, I would go out and celebrate by getting knee-walking drunk! Speaker Palin! The lame-stream-media would go bananas!

Boehner, and many repubs don’t get it. They can’t seem to understand why they keep ending up on the sheety end of the stick.
Here’s a hint. The rules have changed. They play as dirty as any union thug. They’ll lie, cheat intimidate, whatever needs to be done. The repubs are still playing the “I’ll trust you” game, and the “O.K…I’ll compromise first and be the grown up in this…now it’s your turn.”
The country means nothing to them. They see everything as they are right…everyone else is wrong. Not much difference between them and a cult or a religious fundamentalist or a terrorist cell, or a mob family.
If they haven’t figured this out yet, there is little hope. STOP.TRUSTING.THEM.
90% of them are Charlie Browns.

I second the nomination. The Speaker of the House does not have to be a member of the body. I would love to see Allen West as Speaker of the House

Lieutenant Colonel Allen Bernard West
I don’t care if nothing gets done. I want someone to “bring it” to rat ears. Stop him at every turn. Blister him with investigations and hearings. Keep him so busy fighting off impeachment he has no time to work his lib mischief.
And if he finally waves the white flag and offers compromise?
Boot to the teeth.
Then take the gloves off.

At Daily Caller, Laura Ingraham is reporting that her sources say Paul Ryan is favored to replace Boehner.

BTW, Daily Caller appears to have been recently hacked. I just went there and it made my anti-virus go five bells. Earlier this morning there was no problem.
