on MSNBC Ron Meyer said his sources said Boehner will resign as Speaker of the House at 5:00 PM toda

[xxxsdesdexxx]

Just to caution he did say it's a rumor but he says that it's serious rumors that multiple senior sources told him this. We shall see.....

1. Yesterday's late session must have really cut into his drinking time

some things are sacred.

[Filibuster Harry]

2. Interesting??? I wonder who will take over?? I have been telling my friends for the last couple

of weeks that I think the Rs would pull a Julius Caesar on him. It is clear that Mr. Boehner and the
President cannot negotiate. Cantor or McCarthy will do better??

3. that could throw the leadership battle into a bloodbath.

Pelosi and Hoyer may see an opportunity to hand pick the next Speaker as the least bad of the choices.

Hilarity may ensue.

4. It's a rope-a-dope

he 'resigns' so he can stand for the position in the next congress without being 'the incumbent'

5. So what are Ron Meyer's bona fides?

What's his track record?

[NewJeffCT]

6. so, Speaker Cantor or Speaker Ryan

next?
