Now showing on US politics, John Boehner!
Just for the record I'm hardly a pundit. I'm not American nor do I live in the US. However I'm more fascinated with whats happening there more than what's going here. Politics sucks, and politicians gobble it all up.
Anyway, this post is about the recent victory of Republicans in Midterm elections. With the victory, the GOP regained control of congress. John Boehner, will be the incoming speaker of the House.
From NY Daily:
It was a scene straight out of "Mad Men" - chain-smoking Don Draper denouncing "addictive" cigarettes after his ad agency lost a big tobacco account.Except it was Rep.

"For too long, Washington has been doing what's best for Washington, not what's best for the American people," said the man who would be third in line to the presidency.
The sounds of jaws dropping filled the air. Here was a man who epitomized Washington denying he ever had anything to do with the place. The fictional Don Draper would have been proud.
In many ways, Boehner is the Don Draper of D.C. - a chain-smoking, unapologetic Midwesterner in a sharp suit straight out of America, circa 1962. Read more
CNN:

During Boehner's time in Congress, he's also earned a reputation among reporters and colleagues as having a laid-back demeanor and a penchant for wisecracks. On Thursday, when questioned by ABC's Diane Sawyer about the possibility of a "Slurpee summit" with President Obama, Boehner responded, "I don't know about a Slurpee. How about a glass of merlot?"
