Boner already made a deal that will fund all of Obie’s TRANSFORMATIONAL DREAMS. Using Piglosi and her ilk - Hastart rule has been trampled by Boner. THROW EVERYONE OF THEM OUT IN 2016.
Okay. Put Hensarling at the head of ANOTHER list that includes names I want on it.
NO x 5!!!
They’re ALL RINO’s.
Hensarling (TX) (and I’m in TX) gets a “C” on CR ratings.
Gohmert gets an A
Weber and Neugebauer get B’s

The Conservative Review® Liberty Score® grades members of Congress using long-term voting records. A letter grade is assigned to each member to help you quickly determine if a lawmaker is supporting conservative principles. The Liberty Score® is one of the primary tools Conservative Review® uses to help separate rhetoric from reality.
You can look up the score for ALL Reps at site. This is the site that Mark Levin supports and has now become their editor-in-chief, for web publications.
None of these are solid conservatives.
McCarthy would be continuing Boehner’s tenure. Ryan, just no.
The three others have C ratings (in the low 70’s) from Conservative Review.
New tagline ...
Don’t see it. It’s a tricky run because you have to satisfy all the tribes of the Republican Party. He’s not powerful enough now. The factions won’t have it, so it’s going to be one of the five most likely.
The entire caucus comes in at 68% average per Heritage Action. So at the very least you’d want someone above that figure with power who can stand on his out outside the threats of the DC power structure.
You can bet whoever it is will be not only be obama approved but GOPe approved.
I think the RINOs wouldn’t support a politically strong conservative. Too dangerous. if they can’t get a ‘moderate’ they’d probably go for a politically weak conservative they’d feel they could ‘manage’... but that opens up all kinds of possibilities.
Anyway Hensarling might have enough trust from them that they’d accept him.
You have to get the alternatives elected. How?
How about Jim Jordan from Ohio?
He has a 100% ACU rating and hasn’t been there long enough to become contaminated like the rest of them?
Joe Wilson had the leadership qualities to announce “You Lie!” in front of a joint session of congress when Obama said no illegals would get obamacare.
A friend of a friend thinks Issa might be in the running.
Like it :)
Is anyone who garnered an A or B running? They’re not going to elect somebody so far outside the average. Average means just that.
Who wants it? Who can win it? Who’s the most conservative?
Those are the three critical questions in order. You might not like it, but that’s reality.
Remember that politics isn’t all or nothing, but more or less. This is a major opportunity, not a search for the perfect candidate.
Issa was a failure at the committee hearings. NO.
Cruz and Trump should agree on who they would like as Speaker and then get loud and public about it...stir up the GOP phone lines.
Too bad . . . He'd be tough to deal with, which is what they need badly.
It’s not. Trump cannot change politics 101. It’s not a slam, but reality.
Who wants it? Who can win it? Who’s the most conservative?
That’s it. We don’t have a whole lot of choice in the matter.
