2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumWe should send John Boehner a big bouquet of flowers congratulating him on his reelection to Speaker
After all he has done as much to advance the interests of Democrats and if he is able to last a couple more months will almost certainly plunge the Republican caucus into an all out civil war helping to set up 2014.
Under Boehner's leadership House Republicans now have lower positive numbers than a root canal and will soon be less than undergoing an IRS tax audit.
Since their office probably isn't going to get many bouquets I am guessing that a nice big one from "your admirers at Democratic Underground" would get some attention. Would also love to see the Tea Party folks reaction too.

They make things better. Republicans make things worse.
