This thing fails in the first sentence. Billions of dollars in cuts? They didn't even cut billions of pennies.

We need to make getting Boehner's seat one of our priorities in 2012. It's a conservative enough district that if we can win the primary we would take the seat. That would send a bigger message than anything.

Yes it would. Do we have any ideas?

Regardless of the motives, I want someone viable to run against John Boehner and who truly believes in limited government. I'm willing to donate to this cause. "Bailout Bob" has ticked us off again.

I wonder if she still supports Barack? Hardy har har .... just watch the videos of Boehner and you'll be alright. ;)

I don't really have any specific ideas. I'm in the Midwest but about as far as you can get from his district. We'd need to first get a bunch of Cincinnati area Ron Paulers on here cause they'd know the area best. I'd be on board and would contribute to whatever we can conjure up though.

If you win the primary, the seat is solidly republican...

The reporting by the associated press had him at 50k primary votes, 5k for nearest challenger.

There are no C4L chapters for any of the counties in his district, nor any meetups. That doesn't look too hopeful. In addition, Boehner raised and spent $9 million in the last election. Nine MILLION for a congressional seat!

That is a disgusting amount of money to spend on a congressional race.

Boehner better look for a new job:

Frankly, I couldn't care less who falls on the sword as long as they're members of the old guard. Let 'em fall like dominoes. First up, Boehner?

Would be nice.
