A well thought out plan. Now they come out with Tea Party report cards and run Tea Party candidates to primary out people like Boehner. The battle is on.

Boehner move to middle while you still can, you can't play the lunatic game with the Tea Party. Call them out! McCain is showing you a way out of this. Wake up.
