Blunt claiming victory in majority leader race
Roy Blunt is claiming to have enough votes to win the House majority leader race, according to an article in today's New York Times. His two opponents, however, are not ready to concede.
RedState.org has an article that says Blunt's "victory" announcement really amounts to a concession of defeat.
I like Boehner's challenge to Blunt: If he' so sure he's got the votes, he should go ahead and vacate his post as Majority Whip right now. Put his money where his mouth is.
