Plan Uncovered to Topple Boehner

[gulliver]

43. I believe Tom Delay is still on this side of prison bars.

You don't actually have to be in the House to be Speaker.

I would be glad to see Boehner out. He's one of the last few pegs keeping the R tent from blowing loose and exposing them to the elements. There are still a lot of sentient Republicans out there, desperately clinging to their party despite its tail-spin into degeneracy. They look at the crying, golf-playing, orange-faced Boehner and take comfort that all is not lost. Even though it is.

Delay acts like a slavering raccoon that you wouldn't want to meet walking along a dirt road. And he looks like a botched genetics experiment. He's the perfect face for the current Republican House.

Cantor comes off more like a blank-faced German oven-switch operator. A cool liar. A "wait and bite when it's safe" type rather than a ravening dog like Delay. Still, I think Cantor would be another good choice for the Republicans to make in the interest of helping Democrats take over the Congress next election.

Paul Ryan would be a good choice too. He's the Republican idea of smart. By that I mean stupid.
