If they ever want to get any legislation they sponsor to be voted on, they needed to vote for him.

Waiting Until the Last Minute is code............

If it looked like there was going to be close to enough support to put someone else in, i.e., a last minute surprise, they held out so they could make the difference.

This is making it clear that they support Boehner only because they have to; if any bona fide conservative had went for it, they would have supported them.

IMHO, the Repub party will be replaced and conservatives are going to jump ship.

We draw ever closer to the time when Congress will be financially forced into scaling back our military and all other spending starts getting all jammed up in shortfalls of cash.

The idea of hocking Treasuries to banks via the primary dealers is soon going to start making Treasuries seem like Greek bonds.

There are many conservative parties out there that individually don’t amount to much. But, IMHO, there will be a mass exodus from the Republican party upon a triggering event and many R’s will become C’s, temporarily creating a three party system. IMHO, the R party can’t survive that, will become impotent and fade away.

The R party will not win any more political battles, IMHO. They are not really centrist or liberal, and not really conservative.

The D party is simply a coalition of scams, but the R party centrists cave in too much to be able to form a reliable coalition with C’s - the C’s have no real reason any more to support R’s.

IMHO.

That's kind of what I've been thinking. IMHO, too.
