If Boehner gets a good deal on these negotiations and he shepherds Ryan's bill through he certainly does have what it takes.
Some are fixated on ridiculing tears, but just who are the real adults ...the ones who are working to get the major tasks done or the ones who snipe at the former on political message boards?
If he and Ryan and others can stop the complete financial meltdown of our country, they can all get up there and have a good blubber fest. I'll join 'em. Until then, they need to put a Kleenex in it and get the job done. Put Bachmann up there--she's got what it takes.
