This is encouraging (hat tip Instapundit):
But neutral observers and individuals sympathetic to Bohener and Shadegg say that in the complicated world of leadership races, endorsements are good for only one go around on the carousel. And a source familiar with the Shadegg campaign notes that it is “tricky for Blunt to whip a second ballot given his” public claims of having already reached 117. Asked outright if Shadegg has asked for and received promises of second ballot support from Blunt and Boehner backers, this source offered an unequivocal “yes.”
As I’ve posted on previously, Jeff Flake is my representative, not Shadegg. I don’t know that much about Shadegg other than what has been reported. What I do know, is that he’s the best hope the GOP has to stop the insanity that is big government, big spending, appearance-of-impropriety, etc.
I remember reading a post at The Truth Laid Bear right after Shadegg entered the race endorsing his prospective leadership, which was countersigned by quite a few other conservative bloggers. Count me in.
