A plain-spoken assessment of GOP congressional prospects

If you’re a Republican, possibly you also have a friend or two contemplating a congressional challenge to either John Barrow of Savannah or Jim Marshall of Macon, Georgia’s two white Democrats.

If this is the case, please tell them that House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio) has this message: The fund-raising situation “sucks.”

His word, not ours, in The Politico.

“Now the money sucks for two reasons,” Boehner said. “People are mad at the president; they are mad at the party. And then [there is] this whole immigration fight. People just turned off the spigot.”
