Woah.

One of the few that was willing to work with both sides of the aisle.

Right's hated him for bowing to Dem's and Dem's thought he still acquiesced too much to the right wing.

Maybe makes him a good speaker?

He wanted to compromise but had no control of his caucus. They killed every deal he made.

Boehner loathes the Tea Party. In fact, he may take this final month to wheel-and-deal the Tea party right up the ass.

Boehner is a blustery blowhard drunk who didnt get anything done despite the Republican majority.
Out with the old, in with the new.
