Implosion of the Got 0 Plans party

By GottaLaff

The Got 0 Plans party is imploding fast. I just read a piece over at Politico, and I'm going to post a few choice phrases and excerpts. Don't worry about context. You can always go read the whole thing here.

A thing to behold:

• Cantor and Ryan ultimately caved in, and what they got was the worst of both worlds: a thin, glossy “blueprint” that was ridiculed by Democrats and cable news anchors, and a nasty internecine scrap that culminated with one GOP aide telling POLITICO that Pence had thrown Ryan “under the bus” in an “egocentric rush” to grab the spotlight.
• ...internal squabbling that afflicted the party during the height of its power at the beginning of the Bush administration.
  
• “It was an unmitigated disaster. We’ve got to figure out why this happened — and fix things fast.”
• four-car pile-up
• the Boehner-Pence and Cantor-Ryan camps split publicly
  
• the ultimate “CYA” bill – shortly before Cantor, his No. 2, stood in the well of the House to cast his vote in favor of it.
• simmering tensions between aides to Cantor and Pence
• Democrats are clearly savoring the squabble.
  
• “Obama’s getting in their heads. They are totally obsessed with not being called the Party of No – and it’s forcing them to make mistakes.”
