Spotlight not pointed at Cantor - The Hill

...."Cantor, unafraid to throw rhetorical bombs, initially took
on the role of Tea Party sympathizer within the GOP’s
expanded conference, setting him apart from Boehner,
viewed as the more laid-back leader who was willing to cut
a deal.Now, in the wake of a devastating election for Republicans,Boehner and Cantor are on the same page.
One Republican lawmaker told The Hill that Cantor seems
to be more patient in his quest to one day become the
Speaker given the current political reality: an unruly
conservative conference, coupled with a Democrat-
controlled Senate and White House."....

Conservative groups lash out at GOP's 'fiscal cliff' counteroffer - The Hill's Blog Briefing Room

http://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/270761-conservative-group-unhappy-with-gop-fiscal-cliff-counteroffer

...“Republicans were reelected in the House to stop Pres.
Obama's agenda, not figure out creative ways to fund it,”
Dan Holler, communications director for Heritage Action
for America, a sister organization of the Heritage
Foundation, told The Hill in an email.
And Americans for Prosperity, a conservative group
partially funded by the billionaire Koch brothers, said the
GOP offer “left conservatives wanting.”
"The President's proposal and Speaker Boehner's
counteroffer fail to seriously deal with the reality of the
problems facing the nation,” Americans for Prosperity
president Tim Phillips said in a statement. “Conservatives
are looking for a leader to fight against tax increases, to
push back against wasteful government spending, and
address the fiscal challenges in a bold way. Sadly this plan
leaves conservatives wanting.".......
....."Speaker Boehner's counteroffer today offers
disappointingly small spending reductions,” AFP’s policy
director James Valvo continued in the statement. “After
immediately giving in to higher taxes following the election,
the Speaker has now followed up by pulling the best parts
of the House budget off the table. The only way to solve
the nation's fiscal woes is to reform the runaway
entitlement programs and government spending. It is
disturbing that this proposal may give up the entire FY2013
spending reductions agreed to in the BCA.”.....

Mccain who opposed filibuster reform when it was to be used against Democrats may now endorse it against Republicans #tcot #twisters

McCain gets fed up with Rand Paul, hints at endorsing filibuster reform | The Daily Caller

http://dailycaller.com/2012/12/03/mccain-gets-fed-up-with-fellow-republican-says-lends-some-credence-to-idea-of-filibuster-reform/

..."Republican Sen. John McCain became so
fed up with a Republican colleague’s efforts to block the
National Defense Authorization Act on Monday that he
suggested in a floor speech that perhaps Democratic
Majority Leader Harry Reid’s push to change the rules of
the filibuster was not a bad idea.
The comment came after McCain criticized his Republican
colleague Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky for holding up the
NDAA.
“I find it disappointing that one member of the United
States Senate feels that his particular agenda is so
important that it affects the lives and the readiness and
the capabilities of the men and women who are serving in
the military and our ability to defend this nation,” McCain
said. “I think it’s hard to answer to the men and women in
the military with this kind of behavior, but I will leave that
up to the senator from Kentucky to do so.”
“Much to my dismay,” McCain said of Paul’s objection, “it
lends some credence to the argument that maybe we
ought not to do business the way that we are doing here
in the United States Senate.”....
