Was Boehner the voice of reason in the Republican Party? That's scary.
I read that the on the night of the Pope's address, the pontiff leant over to Boehner and said, "pray for me. pray for me." Boehner was crying throughout the address. He quit 14 hours later. If it was a moment of realization, a straw that broke the camel's back, then I am actually a little saddened by his decision to quit. It could have been a moment of revitalization which he could have used to empower his own positions versus that of the GOP mainstream, a move that would have been in devotion to his newfound sense of righteousness. But by caving, he'll just birth the next head of the hydra.
