This should prove very interesting - a knockdown, drag-out fight for the soul of the GOP. Is it the corporate lackeys of the establishment wing or the divorced-from-reality Teabaggers. There Will Be Blood.

Hopefully they will hemorrhage, bleed to death, and a new party standard will arise - just dreaming I know.

House Speaker Boehner to resign from Congress at end of October
Quote:
The Ohio lawmaker, 65, stunned Republican House members at a morning meeting with the announcement he will step down from the speakership, the top job in the 435-seat chamber, and resign his seat in Congress effective on Oct. 30.

U.S. Representative Kevin McCarthy of California, the No. 2 Republican in the House, is expected to be the leading contender to replace Boehner as speaker, Republican Representative Peter King told reporters.

Maybe the GOP will pick the David Duke guy without the baggage. Isn't he number three?
There is always those Dixiecrats like Goehmert or xenophobes like King from Iowa.

A perfect comeback.
Seriously a bagger does not have a chance but there will be a fight, hopefully a long and bloody fight into 2016. Question I have to the OP is why would any sane person want to 'step up'. So only crazies need to apply.
