[...] Adam Bitely — This afternoon the Speaker of the House will be elected for the 113th Congress. As we noted yesterday, rumors are running wild on Capitol Hill that Boehner will fall short of the necessary 218 votes to [...]

Jamsim, Really? We are talking about politics here. Some of these folks don’t have an honest cell in their bodies. The actual process of pre-vote counting in the House might have been inaccurately reported to Boehner by someone who wanted to replace him as Speaker. While Boehner might not be quite as conservative as I prefer, he does represent his constituants and fellow representatives. When compared to Nasty Pelosi Boehner the difference is easily apparent.

There is no rule that says the Speaker must be a member of the House. It won’t happen, but West does meet all of the qualifications (human, breathing)…

Allen West would be; however, he lost his reelction bid and cannot be the speaker of the house because he is not a member of congress anymore. Sorry — Let’s make it Michelle Bachmann because the Rino’s, left and media all hate her and she’d be great! It would not be business as usual.

I vote for Michelle Bachmann for speaker of the house or Louis Gourmet, or Steven King of Iowa — not piglosi.

Come on Chiefbuck that’s nonsense. He’s the speaker of the house, you don’t think he gets accurate information? Everything that has happened to this country (all bad), has happened because both parties have allowed it to happen. Not just the democrats, and not just the republicans, but both. This isn’t 1813, it’s 2013 and accurate information is far easier to come by. Speaker of the house is a job that Boehner openly campaigned for, and he openly failed … My opinion is I think he Intentionally failed.

He needs to be replaced by another Winston Churchill. We don’t need Republicans, we need Conservatives

Boehner did what he could with what he had. He must depend on others who may not have been giving him accurate information. But most of all he should be retained because he told that slimy Howdy Doody look alike worm Harry Reid to go F*** himself twice. According to reports Reid tried to put the blame on his rancid comments on an underling who supposedly provided the pre written talking points. The supposed provider immediately denied providing the trash uttered by Dirty Harry. Obama and Reid by spiking the ball plus, have guaranteed that the fight to extend the borrowing limits will be a treat for conservatives.
