RE: The votes against Boehner
If you watch the 113th session get gaveled in and vote on C-SPAN ... the liberty wing is stage center in the chamber. If you include the people hovering around that group who ultimately voted Boehner because it was a moot point, it looks like the real opposition is about 20-30 people.

RE: David Walker

Since the Speaker doesn't have to be a member of Congress, I've wondered why the party in power doesn't just find the smartest negotiator around and put them in place. The RNC needs someone a little more adept than Boehner to keep pace with the Dems' well-oiled spinsters.

Nice to see some resistance from the rank-and-file. Also, I read that 5 Democrat members voted for someone other than Pelosi. Not sure who cast those votes, however.
