Is Eric Cantor making his move?

[brooklynite]

Boehner is obliged to bring Senate bill up for a vote

Cantor comes out in opposition

Cantor and most Republicans vote "no"

Bill passes with mostly Democratic votes

Cantor challenges Boehner for Speaker

[virtualobserver]

1. Is he obliged to do so? What about the "Hastert rule" n/t

[Panasonic]

3. Fuck Hastert.

These people should not vote in lockstep.

2. can't they do better than Cantor or Boner?

[annabanana]

4. I don't think boner has the stones to bring it up for a vote.. . .n/t

5. Cantor is committing political suicide even if he wins the Speaker job. nt.

6. Cantor is committing political suicide even if he wins the Speaker job

SHHHHHHhhhhhhhhhhh.............Dammit!!!.........

7. Cantor is an imbecile and the GOP deserves all the shit he brings down on them.

[customerserviceguy]

8. He probably has a keen sense of timing

And this bill is the best way to separate himself from Boner, just two days before a new Congress is about to be installed.

That's why I fear Cantor, he's a much shrewer card player than Boner could ever hope to be. The President will have his hands full for the next two years if Cantor becomes Speaker. Boner will look like the good old days in comparison.
