for Boehner? Don’t get me wrong, they need to be gone, but so does the leader.

After losing 2 consecutive races in the House to an opposition party that is running on absolutely no rational ideas and has likely one of the most unintelligible leaders as Speaker, it’s time for the GOP to once again have an “ideas man” as Leader in the House – and in the Senate for that matter.

I believe that Leader in the House is Paul Ryan. He’s the only candidate who has a thoughtful, conservative agenda who all could rally around, in the mold of Newt from ’92.

In the Senate, we need Jon Kyl, a true conservative, a great spokesperson and a warrior to do battle with the coming liberal storm from an Obama White House.

Conservatism did not lose on Tuesday. All that was slaughtered was liberal ideas and policies masquerading in conservative attire. The American people are waiting for conservative leaders to step forward; are we ready to lead?

Paul Ryan? I’m not terribly familiar with him.

I still want Jeff Flake in a highly visible position. He IS the conservative standard bearer.

Thank you for the good news. The man was elevated well above his level of competence.

I don’t live in his district, but if he does retire, this would open the seat up for Gov. Matt Blunt, Rep. Blunt’s son, to run for it in 2010.

What about Marsha Blackburn for Minority Leader? Mike Rogers, Sue Myrick and Zach Wamp would be good choices too.

Republicans must plan for the future.

He can stay in Congress, but he is a failed leader. He needs to step down.

Failure on the prt of leadership should not be rewarded. I like Boehner and think he has done a decent job, in ordinary times he should be kept in the job.

These are not ordinary times. Congress stands as the only defense from the most radical left-wing administration ever!

Similarly McConnell is perfectly fine in nrmal times. In this election he barely held his own seat! That’s not enough.

boehner and McConnell were so much better than frist and Hastert that we lose sight of the fact that they are not what we need.

As someone above mentioned, Marsha Blackburn is outstanding! She is very conservative, she voted against the bailout, it doesn’t hurt that she is personable and an excellent communicator.

And…do we need one?

If you know the enemy and know yourself you need not fear the results of a hundred battles.

The Senate 2010 math looks disasterous. We may be forced to retake the House in the next midterm or face a lot of trouble. Blunt needed to go and, after presiding over the loss of 50 seats, we may have to force Boehner out with him.
