GOP Leadership Elections

Heh.

House GOPers elected John Boehner AND Roy Blunt to their leadership. It couldn't matter less to them that what is neccesary for the party is to send a message with change at the top. Youve got Blunt whose basically a Delay clone who just last week gave a spirited defense of earmarking. Then theres John Boehner who displayed a pure lack of leadership during the run up to the elections. In an election where voters had ethics on there minds and rightly or wrongly so thought the Republicans where worse on this issue, the GOP caucus elects its leader a man who passed out checks on the house floor on behalf of the tobbacco industry.

Mike Pence and John Shadegg were a couple of bold Conservative reformers who have not forgotten why they are in Washington. These two congressmen are loved by the grassroots. I do not see a better articulator and leader of Conservatism than Mike Pence. Its a shame hes not in leadership.

Basically, were still being spit on and I dont know how others feel but Im sick of it. Im not sure if theres anything anyone can do about it.
