It going to take a little more time, but Boner's bunch are going to be voted down by Reps who realize that it won't matter if they get Koch money or if they get primaried out by it if the folks back home have the tar and feathers ready for them.

Nobody but a bunch of Koch funded teabagger fanatics wanted this and even they are getting a harsh lesson in what the mean old gummint actually does.
