ON the bright side....It was good to see Senator Tim Scott.

Keep us posted.

I’m keeping TV on CSPAN House so I won’t miss the nomination and vote for Boehner.

[GeronL]

of course the fix is in.

If it goes to a second ballot, some Democrats will likely give Bonehead the win

[Free Vulcan]

Boehner and Pelosi are the only nominations for speaker.

[US Navy Vet]

Doesn’t matter, in 2014 GOP-e WILL lose the US House.

[campaignPete R-CT]

for those of us not paying attention:
the speaker is chosen by closed caucus vote of the GOP: This vote has already taken place with no challenge to Boehner?
it sure won’t be on TV. pardon my lack of attention
the official floor vote for speaker will be a non-event, yep, no-drama there.

[RS_Rider]

Boehners re-election is a forgone conclusion....fundamental change of the United States of America requires him.

[Gabz]

On the CBSradio top of the hour news at noon (40 minutes ago) they said he remains Speaker.

[iowamark]

Nobody else wants the job as it is such a no win situation.

[Triple]

why was Allen West called to vote?

[50mm]

I predict that when it becomes mathematically impossible for Pelosi to win that the rest of the democrats will vote for Boehner. It will be an ultimate dirty trick.

[who knows what evil?]

This was all pre-arranged...voting discussed behind closed doors; some ‘allowed’ to vote against Boehner so they can find favor with their conservative constituents...same old game.
