John Boehner, Speaker of the House?

He certainly intends to become just that in a few months time. Representative Boehner (R-OH) would very much like for the Republican Party to win control of the House, whereupon he would become Speaker. Problem:

This, of course, is the same man who was absolutely certain that the Clinton economic plan would be a massive failure, was completely convinced that Bush's economic policies would produce extraordinary prosperity, and just knew beyond a doubt that the recovery efforts that have produced 2.8 million jobs so far would hurt the economy.

I tremble for my country.
