nprfreshair: Vanity Fair writer Todd Purdum on the likely House majority leader, John Boehner: “I think John Boehner knows very well, because of his own experience, that it’s one thing to get a majority … [but] it’s very, very hard to retain a majority if all you do is say no. And I think he and the advisers around him know they have to put something in front of the House and in front of the American people that they can be for, as opposed to just being against.” I just don’t understand why he looks like that. (among other things about him that I don’t understand, obv)
