After all that pizza and promises of gutting Pell grants, John Boehner still hasn't managed to bribe enough Republicans to vote on his bill. Via TPM:
House Whip Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) just announced there will be no vote tonight on the Boehner debt bill.
A remarkable turn of events. Simply no reason for Boehner to bring up his own bill if it was doomed to fail, and clearly it was.
Despite a lot of confident talk from Boehner and his leadership team, it appears they never had the votes.
Tune in tomorrow for more Republican nihilism fun ...
