From Boehner’s Lips, Fodder for Democrats
By MICHAEL SHEAR

The idea behind Thursday morning’s news conference by House Republican leaders was not to provide ammunition for Democrats.

But that may be what happened.

Even as Representative John Boehner, the Republican leader, was trumpeting the “Pledge for America,” he may have inadvertently played right into the hands of the White House and Democratic candidates.

In answer to a question from a reporter about the party’s position on social issues, and with the cameras running, Mr. Boehner said: “We are not going to be any different than what we’ve been.”

2. I hope the Democrats do a better job than they did with the tax cuts

They were tossed a big fat softball and refused to even swing at it.

I'm afraid it's going to take a republican takeover of congress and worsening economic conditions to get people pissed off enough to act.
