CNN Politics: Reports the following agenda by present Republican Speaker Boehner and expected the next Speaker, the article notes the following, " but also as an affirmation of the anti-tax tea party, the upstart movement that helped the Republicans capture the House in 2010. ".
Lets Get Real:
One can expect former Speaker Pelosi, the Democratic leader in the House to get the chop, she is a loser, she lost the House to the Republicans in 2010 and is loathed by most Americans as to liberal. Unlike the Senate being in the minority in the House is NO FUN, you are shut out, you can not prevent the Republicans passing their Agenda. One can assume that by 2014 Mid Terms, the sixth year of a Obama term, the President will not be popular, thus the Republicans can expect to hold the House for a generation. Lets recall POTUS will not be on the ballot in 2014, thus the Democrats can not count on Young, African - American , sing females to vote. That should worry the Democrats in 2016. Speaker Boehner was close to a deal with the Oval before the election over tax raises and welfare cuts but the Oval tried to strong arm the Republicans for bigger tax hikes, there is great mistrust between the House and the Oval. Also Obama did not help Democratic House members get elected, thus the Dems in the House might not have that much love for the Oval. Highs in politics do not last, lows are often, thus lets see if the Oval can beat history.
