Apparently there are enough votes to get rid of Boehner. And there are big battles left to fight. But with Paul Ryan's disappointing vote, Ryan is no longer a candidate to replace him.
Update:
Protein Wisdom: Why even have a GOP?
EBL: The New GOP Mascot
Blogmocracy: Screwed!
Ace/Krauthammer: GOP = Surrender Monkeys
Red State: Silver Linings? Not too much...
Right Scoop: Erik Erickson makes pitch that Boehner is better than Cantor (I am not sure about that, but Cantor is not to be trusted either)
Shark Tank: Weepy Boehner capitulates.
Weasel Zippers: Boehner either resigns or is forced out tomorrow?
because holding out for a nonexistent "compromise" completely on the House GOP's terms while having people across the board yell at you for screwing the middle class wouldn't feed into a bad narrative about the GOP or anything
