MSNBC just said there might be a primary challenger in Boehner's future...that could take up a lot of money and his time. :0)

2. I'm watching right now
That was the teaser...the story is coming. BUT...wow...I WISH it would be moderate but most likely it is going to be tea party? just speculating...not to start gossip...just starting a conversation.

4. You might have a point there. He's been pissing them off
He's so far right he's falling off the cliff, but the Teabag Party think he's too wussy.

3. What's frightening is that his teabagging compatriots make Boehner look (almost) reasonable.
The crazy that's been invading our politics is breathtakingly terrifying.

12. I can't wait to see if GOP Presidential candidates throw him under the bus.
He's definitely an establishment Republican, so it shouldn't be a surprise that the TP is upset.
