John Boehner's future as Speaker of the House? John Boehner worst Speaker of the House?

[UCmeNdc]

Wagner's fellow MSNBC hosts Chris Hayes and Melissa-Harris Perry joined in to discuss John Boehner's future as Speaker of the House and his lack of control over his caucus and whether he's going to take a hard turn to the right to get this bill passed, which is going to create a whole new set of headaches with getting the bill passed in the Senate.

It will be interesting to see how this plays out, because as they discussed as well, this bill isn't one that they're going to allow to languish any more than they would a defense authorization bill. And it's unique because it's one of the few times we see the interests of those who have some pull in Washington, like these wealthy farmers, tied to those in poverty.

The author of this article agree with Hayes, who told the audience here just as he did on his own show tonight that this bill was so bad, he was glad to see Republicans kill it. Now the question, what do they end up trying to replace it with?

1. So, who would be a good be on replacing Boehner

I haven't heard any of the Repubs saying anything intelligent for so long. There must be, just on the odds, at least 1 repub in the house that could be an actual 'leader'? Just off hand, tho, I can't think of
one!!

that he's probably the *best* that we'll do as long as the Republicans control the House.
