Bentivolio is always so flaky, gotta wonder how sensitive he is to blackmail and bribery :D

I mean, he's already out, so not like he had anything to lose.

He says he did it so "Pelosi wouldn't win." I think Boehner probably pulled him aside for a smoking session and told him he could be a big hero by stopping Pelosi. And simple minded Kerry probably just went along with it.

Another possibility is that he will get some of his debt paid off in a shady deal. Apparently, he is facing homelessness due to his irresponsible spending.

Hero to whom? Boehner? This thing is unpopular with the GOP base. He must be a total retard if he buys that.
