The time has come for a grassroots uprising against Boner. Operation Boehner's Donors begins here. We are looking for people from each Republican held district to serve as a Team Captain, where you will help create a petition at
petitiononline.com for your district and drive signatures from local registered Republicans, particularly ones who have donated to your congressman in the past.
We will pledge to withhold all campaign funds to any representative who votes to return Boner to the leadership post.
Please discuss this action here, announce your interest in heading up the campaign in your district, etc.

So does this mean the GOP House leader won’t have to do anything — again? I mean the success of the last election was so stunning in it’s lack of success. Did anyone see the lameo dontgo campaign? If that’s what we have to look forward to ... I say don’t go.

It should be a common-sense rule that if the party loses, all members of the leadership in charge should automatically resign. If no on steps forward to take a vacated position, it can revert to its previous holder.

I lost a great conservative congressman because they refused to dole out campaign money to my congressman. They said he was a lost cause but he ended up losing by 2% in a 4 way race.
Boehner is another anti conservative republican who deserves the beating he’s going to get.

It is official: The Republican Party has become the New York Knicks circa 3 years ago and Boner is Isaiah Thomas.

Paul Ryan is supposed to be an up and coming conservative leader. Unfortunately, he voted for the $700 billion bailout that turned out to be a fraud. He believed the liberal lies. This guy has a long way to go before he is leadership material. Also, check his 2nd Amendment record. Moderate at best.
Keep looking. There MUST be a conservative around somewhere.

It is time people stopped giving money to the RNC and started giving to the Club For Growth, an excellent organization which primarily challenges RINOs in the primaries:

Someone needs to show some guts and stop griping anonymously about Boehner still staying but challenge the loser. And if no one wants to directly do it, do so indirectly with a no confidence vote. Just don’t give him one single vote and embarass him into resignation. Then draft someone to replace him.

If Boehner was a man of character he'd step down. We lost. He was at the helm. He needs to step down. If he doesn't the world laughs.

I agree. If he had any honor, he’d step aside, and let some new guys challenge each other for the position.

Does anyone else get ashamed sometimes to identify as a Republican? I don’t even identify as that much anymore. I vote Republican for the sole reason that the Democrats are much worse. The party has left me. And they keep poking me in the eye.

I think you’re looking at this the wrong way. Conservatives will never see representation in the corrupt, inept, and useless GOP. Better that the GOP go the way of the Whigs and a conservative third party take it’s place.
Given the incredibly bad choices that the GOP is about to make for house minority leader and RNC chair, it won’t be too long before the GOP goes to it’s well deserved place on the trash heap of history.
