Pelosi would NEVER give the OK to that.

She wants that Speakership.

Only way Boehner keeps his speakership is if he doesn’t cave.. and it looks like he will.

If this is true, we were right about him all along — high time for a creep-speaker to be kicked out.

I think you underestimate how Machiavellian Pelosi is. If she tried to take the Speakership now it would re-unite the GOP and she would fail. If she gives the release to her caucus to support Boehner then he retains the title but she holds the power.

btw, this is exactly how TX Speaker Joe Straus (super-RINO) holds power even against a majority of GOP who oppose him.
