i think cantor can not wait to stab him in the back and take the speakership from him...
I'm still wondering who the House Speaker is...Boehner or Cantor?

He caved because he wants to go home for Christmas recess!
Well...I wouldn't doubt if that was at least somewhat true, anyway.
no he caved because him and his party had embarrassed themselves enough already in this fight. they though the country was going to go along with them in this fight and they grossly overplayed their hand. they think they know the electorate, but their position on this issue clearly shows that they do not...
could you imagine the backlash if they went home without settling this and all of our taxes went up a grand starting jan 1? how would it have looked to the american people that the man who has been dead set against raising taxes on the rich allowed them to be raised on over 160 million american workers? that would have given obama and boehner's future opponent all of the ammunition needed in the next campaign...and it would have guaranteed another term for obama. the people know that the gop is playing games with the economy to score political points, and it is not working. we are not as stupid as they think we are.
"this man single handedly raised YOUR taxes while fighting tooth and nail to protect the rich from having theirs go up a single penny..."
that would be a pretty damning campaign ad. and boehner knew it. he is an idiot, but he is not stupid...

can you say anything else in your posts other than i am supporting the 2 party system and i should wake up? you have said the same thing to me at least 3 times.
yes at the moment i am supporting the lesser of 2 evils in the 2 party system. it is clear who is the worst element of the 2 party system. i am voting in my own best interest and what i feel is the best interest of the country. nothing more, nothing less...here is a news flash for you...the 2 party system is not going away any time soon. when congress has an 8% approval rating, yet each congressman has a 55% of greater approval rating in their own district, nothing will change...i would vote out cantor and boehner et al if i could, but i can't because i live in a different district and state... so if you think you are doing anything earth shattering by supporting ron paul thinking he is going the change EVERYTHING, perhaps it is you who is the one who is asleep and dreaming and needs to wake up?

Why doesnt he just flip-flop... like the rest of the GOP, stray... but he wont. Lip service. If he was smart he'd run his libertarian ideas congruently with democratic green party progressives. Oh wait he is. GOP co-opting hell.

exactly, you have unity in ideas, but weeding out who really has the integrity or not at this point...
