i think (one of my many) problems is that i keep investing too much hope in politicians - which makes me all pissy an sheet - i have got to start looking at their positives while holding their feet to the fire

west disappointed me big time with that boner debt ceiling vote - but i can imagine the pressure is huge - still - bachmann did not cave in to it

i was hoping the freshmen would have held their own caucuses and had a revolt against electing boner - they didn't - but it is CRUCIAL they do it in the next congress

and i’m with you - i still support west

“i was hoping the freshmen would have held their own caucuses and had a revolt against electing boner - they didn’t - but it is CRUCIAL they do it in the next congress”

What’s CRUCIAL is that we have the votes this time to matter.
The Speaker reflects the majority that elect him and the RINO-moderate wing out-numbered us this session.
40 more conservatives would give us the Leadership, 20 and up would give us significant influence.

Yet right now the Establishment candidates are rolling effortlessly through their primaries while conservatives moan about what they didn’t get instead of being excited over how close we are to winning the House.
