Jones considers challenging Boehner
Things might be getting interesting in Ohio for House Minority Leader John Boehner now that he has some competition. I do not think he will lose in the next election given the power he holds in the House and the commitment he has given to his conservative district in ensuring their values are maintained. However, Richard Jones is a very intriguing candidate for Ohio to take a look at given how popular he is among his constituency for his job as Sheriff. This is exactly what Republicans cannot afford at this point in time because instead of concentrating their money on areas where they can win back some seats, they are going to have to spend time, energy, and resources in this conservative district of Ohio during the primary season to get a candidate who will end up winning the seat most likely. Boehner and Republicans should be aiming to squash Jones right now and give him a reason to to decline entering the race because it would be a waste for him to go against Boehner who really seems like he has it made as the Representative Republicans want and can trust.
