John Boehner's Job May Be On the Line
John Boehner's job as Speaker of the House of Representatives is under threat after just 85 members of his Republican caucus voted for a fiscal cliff deal that 151 opposed and nearly all Democrats backed.
To add to his woes, Boehner - who faces re-election as Speaker on Thursday - has been lambasted by New Jersey's Governor Chris Christie, a potential 2016 presidential candidate, for failing to bring to a vote a $60billion relief bill for those affected by Hurricane Sandy.

"To add to his woes, Boehner - who faces re-election as Speaker on Thursday - has been lambasted by New Jersey's Governor Chris Christie,"
So Boehner, who has done little other than licking Dem shoes gets crap from a gov who wants more free stuff? Boehner is sleazy enough; Christie beats him all hollow.
Christie: No. Fuck you. Cut spending.
