Really? Looks to me like he hasn't actually compromised on one dang thing considering the senate has vowed to kill his plan on arrival. He has played a good game imo. Boehner has his own style of leadership. I think it has been effective. so far.

U won’t be saying that Tomorrow. Reid will take Boneheads bill or something like it but watered down, and send it back to the House.
Back in Boneheads court. U are about to be played. Get ready for it.

I agree. There is so much going on behind the scenes, we’ll never know all of it.

So. You think the conservative backlash is a feint? Try hard to get a compromise bill through...but gosh, just can’t muster the votes due those rascally tea partiers?

Boehner messed up the first compromise, remember? The supposed cuts ranked with about a house payment it turned out. The caucus said that would never happen to them again. Most of them meant it. Boehner should have left Cut Cap & Balance on the senate table and walked. But no, he has us compromising not with the democrats who are smart enough to keep quiet, but with ourselves, downward from CC&B. With NO CUTS. Cuts in GROWTH are not cuts.

Should have adjourned the House right after CC&B (though even that was smoke and mirrors) and let the Rats be the party of NO! Threatening to zero out a district because the member doesn't agree with him is far from leadership.

I agree.
