He tried to give our district in Maryland back to Wayne Gilchrest to waste and embarass. When the GOP takes another drubbing in Nov. it will be in large part due to Boehner's boners. He is not a leader, but a figurehead. He must be replaced in Congress along with all the other incumbent wastrels.Mike Netherlandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01277682258432084047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37877540.post-63096624184379594052008-07-09T17:20:00.000-04:002008-07-09T17:20:00.000-04:00If we lose double digit house seats, he will be ch...If we lose double digit house seats, he will be challenged and probably go down.

His district is safe for an R and hasn't been held by a Democrat in recent memory. Boehner is fairly popular at home in Ohio, and people who know him here think the national image from Washington is not reality. Boehner is a partisan, but he is no Tom Delay, which is to his credit. Whether he stays or goes as House leader? I imagine if the GOP is drubbed in November and loses seats -- he's gone. But I don't think he'll be voted out of Congress by the Ohioans he represents.<BR/><BR/>Perhaps more people will want to weigh in on this discussion. You asked a good question.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12712163977315292252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37877540.post-82587125705977377882008-07-09T07:09:00.000-04:002008-07-09T07:09:00.000-04:00When is Boehner up for reelection?

Boehner came to our District to campaign for a liberal Republican's reelection, when it was obvious that the district's GOP was favoring his primary challenger.Mike Netherlandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01277682258432084047noreply@blogger.com
