Ron Paul for Speaker of the HouseJohn Boehner is poised to take the helm of House Speaker if the Republicans win the necessary 39 seats next week.

When the dust settles next week we need to be reminded about who really fought for the ideals needed to turn this country away from statism and who helped push this country towards it. If this country stands any chance in the next round of fighting as the statists will surely launch attacks not only from New York and Washington, but from Europe as well, then leadership of the House needs to be in the hands of someone who actually fought for America, and sorrowfully that person is not John Boehner.
