The Right Scoop
I just heard on Fox News that there were two votes for Allen West so far by two Republicans and one vote for Colin Powell by a Democrat.
Hello??
The only qualified, experienced, principled person - who cannot be bought or comprised is:
JUDGE ANDREW NAPILOTANO!!
Let's do it.
I'll believe it when I see it. Cantor or McCarthy as speaker would be no change at all, just another face of the three-headed GOPe monster.
There is going to be alot of political blood spilled on this one. But it may be worth the cost.
I think Boehner and Co, will be going around threatening everyone tonight to make sure that no-one runs against him. Then it won't matter if 20 R's don't vote for him. He may even get Dems to vote for him so that they can embarass Conservatives by handing them back a humiliated wussy speaker who can't stand up to Obummer. The establishment want to keep the status quo, they will only replace "their" guy with another one of "their" guys.
Secret Ballot Vote for Speaker: Urge Your Rep. to Support a Secret Ballot Vote for Speaker. Call, email, fax, and tweet tonight and tomorrow morning. Tomorrow the 113th Congress will be sworn in and we need your help tonight and into the morning to help us push for a secret ballot when they elect the Speaker of the House. The House is set to meet at 12 noon tomorrow, so we need to make as many calls between now and then as possible.
Your Representatives deserve to be able to vote their conscience without fear of retribution from leadership. We know it is getting late, but call your representatives tonight and first thing in the morning to urge them to push for a secret ballot to elect the Speaker of the House. You deserve it and your Representative deserves it!
Call Congress today and tell your representative to support a secret ballot vote for Speaker.

Getting rid of Boehner is not going to solve anything other than make you feel good for two minutes. The RINO establishment is not going to chose a Conservative.
I hate to burst everyone's bubble but you can take that to the bank.
Newt is the only man for this JOB....he has experience doesn't need on the job trainig and knows how to put deems in their place...
I totally agree Scoop!
There is too much thinking on the same wave link or mindset with all of the existing leaders.
If someone will stand up and say they would restore the chairmanship of those Boehner removed would get my support.
I think Bachmann would make the conservatives proud.
I agree FreeMan, Bachmann would be an excellent choice! I bet should could be tough as nails like a Democrat, Nancy Pelosi. And I think it would be a good move on the part of the republican establishment to nominate a woman, albeit a conservative woman!
We need someone like Howlin' Mad Smith as Speaker. Someone who has the cahones to get it done. Period.
Too little too late in my opinion, the damage has been done. The orange cry-baby RINO will go down in history as a giant Pu**y and a coward! Republicans like him need to be given the boot! The bottom line is that government spending is still increasing at a faster rate than it was yesterday and who has the balls to stand up and call out these criminals some call politicians? Crickets.......

Pelosi would need diapers !!!!!
The prospect of Boehner being booted out of the Speaker slot is good news. Cantor as speaker is just another progressive political move. We need a real conservative that can communicate our values to all. Communication is key, and once voters undertand conservatism, LIBs don't have a chance.
Doubt they will pick an outsider! Hasn't happened yet and don't think when they choose a Speaker tomorrow it will change that record. But Boehner could lose his position to someone who is part of the establishment, ie Cantor! However, Louie Gohmert (R-TX) was bold enough to nominate Newt Gingrich back in November but he got much resistance! I don't think the incoming reps will have the conjones to do like Gohmert this time around! Just my take! Unless the people in the districts call their reps and give em a piece of their mind about it. I can't (unfortunately) since I live in CA and the peacniks just voted in a Democrat rep which had been held by a R for years, (thanks to redistricting!).
How about Gov. Sarah Palin? Good grief, what is the matter w conservatives? She's as frugal w budgets and solid on her conservatism as they get. Oops, she's not an old, white man. She's not allowed.
Where can we find a conservative Pelosi? Her management style is like that of no other.
She’s a hard nosed, tough as nails witch... She may not actually have magical powers but she has been more efficient than any speaker in years.
AND I don’t say that as a compliment.
I think both Marie Antoinette and Marie LeVeaux are dead but either could replace Pelosi on the Democratic side today and you could never tell the difference.
Lucretia Borgia, and both Madame Nu and Madame Chiang Kai-shek (Cash My Check) are all dead too, so they're out.
If Golda Meir were still around, I vote for her in a heartbeat.
Golda Meir was a pistol wasnt she?
Heres a great quote from her:
"Don’t be so humble, you’re not that great."
–Golda Meir
Love it!
The R party screwed up when they didn't nom. Newt to run against bummer now its time to get him on our side as speaker... prayers people
sounds good, but let's see what happens in real life! Boehner and McConnel both need to go but Boehner is the only realistic coup on the horizon. Either the Repoublican Party has to change its leadership, or we need a new conservative party run by conservatives.
RINOs MUST go, period!
this time, you, Boehner, were not invited to play golf with the loafer?
Tsk, tsk.....how easy it is to fall out of the ruler's grace, isn't it???
Newt would be a diaster for so many reasons that I cannot even list them all here. I would rather give Cantor a chance because what we know is that Obama completely dislikes Cantor and with that at least we know Cantor will not be playing golf with the Marxist-n-Chief!
I believe the DuhOne/Cantor trials and tribulations to be nothing less than a facade. The way Cantor has fallen into lockstep with Boehner suggests the contrary. Cantor doesn't have a spine and will give into DuhOne and Reid the same way Boehner has.
This is encouraging news, but as others have expressed, I will believe it when I see it. We need someone with a pair of iron (you fill in the blank)!
DRUDGE: Christie Lashes Out Against Boehner After Vote On Sandy Aid Scrapped... drudge.tw/YTy4uo
Funniest thing, Christie didn't put the blame on Obama where it belongs.
Because he is a brown nosing, RINO and we need to keep him in NJ. We have to neutralize politicians like this.
See the game that was just played? Cantor votes no on the bill, and suddenly, he's a "conservative", so he can be put in as the new Speaker. However, Cantor is the same as Boehner - he just had to vote no so that he could provide an alternative to Boehner to make the poor conservative saps happy. It's a set up. Always was. And, watch the lemmings in the House fall for it and vote in Cantor. Then, watch a whole bunch of conservative voters believe that they have been listened to, when they've just been kicked in the face again. Freaking liars, all of them in Washington. Freaking liars.
I don't want Cantor either. How is that any better?? Whoever these people are that want to throw Boehner out surely are the "real" conservatives and would push for someone with our values as conservatives. I would've like Paul Ryan myself but that's not acceptable anymore after this debacle called the fiscal cliff.
Whoever replaces Boehner must:
1. Be able to negotiate well against Obama/Reid
2. Must be able to re-frame argument against Liberal Media
3. Should use Logistics in debates like this.
4. Extensive knowledge of Congressional Procedure that maybe useful in citations like this.
5. MUST and most Important: Be able/have reputation so such GOP brand maybe restored and renew conservative's faith in the GOP.
We can debate who but take what could have been done with the right leadership.
For example. Say I replaced Boehner last night and was given the Senate Bill and had to choose what to do with it. I'd admen the damn thing, pass it through reconciliation so all McConnell would had to do is get 4 Dems to side with him and pass in with 51 votes. And force Obama to Veto it.
