And what conservative would want to be a subordinate on Boehner’s team?

Shame on Hensarling for cowering from a necessary fight. Bob

Why would he want to be Boehner’s lackey? The ML has only the power the Speaker gives him, the Speakership is an autocratic position.
What Jeb’s refusal tells us is that Boehner wouldn’t agree to any change in course.

Sessions has dropped out now from lack of conservative support.
Jordan or Labrador may be the sacrificial conservative. It would be great if the “sacrificial conservative” won. K Street would be a disaster zone.
