Boehmer was 2 votes shy of not being elected speaker. That would had been humiliating if was not voted in. It's still humiliating as a matter of fact.
I think part of the reason for the Tea Party intransigence is that Boehmer has no carrots and not enough sticks to keep these guys in line.
I am interested in what is happening in California right now. All 3 branches of government belong to the Democrats. Let's see what they do in the next 2 years.
