So ... John Boehner, emerging from a 2 hour meeting with his caucus, has canceled tonights vote.

This makes this House of Reps officially unable to literally accomplish anything, even rubber stamp pass a bipartisan bill from the Senate already approved by huge majority and requested (previously passed the responsibility on to) by Boehner.

This also reveals John Boehner as the weakest Speaker in history, a man completely owned by threats from the Tea Party, caving to them over the advice from senior Republican Senators.

Dems and Independents sweep 2012.
