Trey Gowdy for Speaker?

Hey low infos...Boehner was already re-elected. :lol: Low info indeed.

Yep and he instituted some rather sweet rules to cover his butt in the event of an insurrection.
Some wishful thinkers would like change with the leadership. Its needed for the party to come to grips with what the base wants, not the party.

You shold try reality and stay away from the forums...tea party isn't the base...it is only a faction that does more damage than good to the GOP and TRUE conservatism.

Never said TP was the base........you need glasses?
 
Rightwing extremists are simply going to have to accept the fact that they're a minority in the GOP – a loud, intimidating minority – but a minority nonetheless; and rightwing extremists are also going to have to consider the possibility that starting next year their failed, extreme agenda will be ignored by the GOP mainstream, more interested in responsible governance and retaining control of Congress come 2017 than appeasing the TPM and others on the radical right.

This weekend's budget agreement is likely just the beginning where irresponsible extremists such as Ted Cruz will continue to be frustrated by a GOP establishment focused on retaining political power and influence, not preserving the purity of rightist dogma venerated by the TPM.

Don't know if you noticed, but more and more Conservative 'extremists' are winning elections. So much that the clowns in charge of GOP are bypassing their base and funding people to run against these people. These clowns have been going against the GOP base for some time. Sooner or later revolt will happen.

The far right is not the base, only the outliers. Nothing more. The delldudes etc are the exceptions that prove the rule.

Tell you what: give us all the Tea Party members for the 2015 term. Then we will compare them to the Tea Party members in congresses of 2010 and 2012.

Guess what? The funding elected moderates and conservatives, not far right nuts.

You have to realize many elected were liked by TP, not ' members '.
What is far right.
Louis Gohmert is one of a few examples. The TP had no choice but to like many because their own candidates did not survive the primaries. If you thought they were doing hunky dory, you would not be yelling.

The base of the party in the primary eliminated many of the extremists from the far right. dell, you are extremist not base.

The party eliminated those TP favored. Spent lots of contributed cash ticking off many in the GOP base. Why does Jeb want to circumnavigate the Con base then?
 
Jeb will satisfy the cons fine; he won't cave in to the far right "party of stupid."
 
These pseudo-conservatives want to elect a canadian / half Cuban....as they bitch about a Kenyan.
 
dude, you and the far right are not the base.

ACA is here to stay, in part because our GOP could not come up with an effective plan to offer accessible, affordable, and quality health care to all our citizens, unlike the Western nations that have for many decades without the government crash or the people all dying because they could not get the care they needed.

EO is easily managed. The GOP presents a plan to BHO for a secured border, business hiring reform, and a path to citizenship.

He will sign anything else, I bet, except for going to war a la Bush-Cheney.

You just committed an electoral error that is common, namely, the easy desire to compare mid-term election results to general election predictions. There is an entirely different "clientele" that shows up for presidential elections, and millions, millions, millions more go to vote.

After the 2010 midterms, the Right was crowing that Obama was cooked. He won re-election two years later.

It's not the extremes that hold this great Union of ours together: it's the middle.

And this is not to mention, historically, midterm-lame duck elections are almost ALWAYS won by the opposition party. The GOP has to put up or shut up these next two years...trying to redefine conservatism into a hate movement will destroy the GOP forever.
 
Speaker is a position that requires understanding of very complicated legislative procedures.

Hence, it's best not to have a moron in the spot.

Hence, Gowdy would be a poor choice.
Yeah..the Tea Party needs him to investigate manufactured controversies.

GOP submitted quite a few plans only to have Nancy and Harry flip them off every time. You don't remember?

And this time a majority of Dems tired of the BS decided to protest and not show up for the home team. You can sugar coat it all you want but DNC got their fannies waxed big time.

Those "plans" all had poison pills in them (Obamacare Repeal, Obamacare Repeal, Obamacare Repeal).
