Tea party attacks Boehner at home

House Speaker John Boehners tenure as the top Republican in Congress has not been smooth. He has sparred with a combative Democratic president and a Democratic Senate. He has been attacked by conservatives in his own party who think him insufficiently ideological, and he has had to deal with constant rumors that his top lieutenant, House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-Va.), is plotting to steal his speakership.

And that is when he is not dealing with rumors of his own resignation.

But Boehners latest challenge is more direct, a full-on assault from tea party activists back home in his Ohio congressional district, where Boehner faces three challengers in a May 6 primary. One of those is a young high school French teacher named J.D. Winteregg, who is getting support from a national organization that has poured hundreds of thousands of dollars into advertisements, billboards and direct mail aimed at persuading voters to drop the speaker of the House.

Im fed up with him. Im fed up with the fact that hes never home, fed up with the fact that hes never accessible, Winteregg, 32, said in an interview. Its rare that I meet someone thats for Boehner. The first thing they usually say is, Hes been there too long. And the second thing they say is, Lets throw all the bums out.

Winteregg is a political novice who has never sought elected office. He has raised just $43,000 for his campaign, less than 1 percent of the $5.5 million Boehner has raised for his principal campaign account. But the outside group, the Tea Party Leadership Fund, has spent almost $320,000 on voter communications opposing Boehner and backing Winteregg. The groups chairman, radio host Rusty Humphries, said they interviewed a number of candidates before deciding to back Winteregg.

[Winteregg] reminds me of a young reformer back 24 years ago. There was this guy John Boehner who was going to reform things; he was going to change things, Humphries said. Boehner hasnt been doing the job that the people of Ohio sent him there to do. They sent him there to be a strong conservative voice.

Primary challenges are nothing new for Boehner. Since winning his seat, which includes several suburban and rural counties north of Cincinnati along the Indiana border, he has won five contested primaries. In 2010, he beat two challengers and took 85 percent of the vote. Two years later, he won 84 percent of Republican voters against a single challenger.

But Boehner knows this year is different in at least one regard: Unlike 2010, when now-Sen. Rob Portmans campaign was running get-out-the-vote operations, or 2012, when Republican presidential candidates were battling for delegates, there is no high-stakes race on the ballot this primary season. Gov. John Kasich (R) is unopposed in his bid for renomination, and neither Ohio Senate seat is up for grabs.

Incumbents are most vulnerable in low-turnout elections, when voters motivated by opposition to sitting members of Congress can turn out in higher proportions than those who favor the status quo. So Boehner, who is used to shelling out campaign cash to fellow Republicans around the country, is spending some of his own money.

The campaign has spent $297,000 on television ads running in both the Cincinnati and Dayton media markets, according to filings made with local television stations. Boehner has two campaign offices open, one in his hometown of West Chester and another satellite office in Miami County, farther north.

May Primary Showdowns To Test Tea Party's Relevance

Mays test for the Tea Party

More than a month has passed without a 2014 Senate primary race, but that is about to change. Two weeks from today, the first of several competitive GOP primaries in May will take place. And if theres a common theme in several of these contests, its that the Republican establishment candidates appear to have the edge -- at least right now -- which presents a test for the Tea Party. In North Carolina (May 6), the Chamber of Commerce-backed Thom Tillis has the advantage, although a potential runoff (if no one gets more than 40% of the vote) could make things much more interesting for the North Carolina state House speaker. In Kentucky (May 20), Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell looks to be solid shape against Tea Party challenger Matt Bevin (dont miss the new McConnell and Bevin TV ads). In Georgia (also May 20), the top-two candidates are the establishment-backed David Perdue and GOP Rep. Jack Kingston; by contrast, the most conservative Republicans (Reps. Paul Broun and Phil Gingrey) are trailing the field. And in Oregon (also May 20), the AP is calling abortion-rights supporter Monica Wehby as the biggest threat to incumbent Sen. Jeff Merkley (D-OR).

The establishment strikes back?

This is perhaps why so many outside conservative groups are focused so heavily in backing Ben Sasse against Shane Osborn in Nebraskas GOP Senate primary (on May 13). It also raises the stakes in the competitive House GOP primary in Idaho featuring incumbent Rep Mike Simpson vs. challenger Bryan Smith (May 20). And dont forget the Texas runoff between incumbent Rep. Ralph Hall and challenger John Ratcliffe (May 27), where Hall is probably the underdog to hold onto his job. We maintain that the Tea Party still remains a powerful force in Republican politics -- remember that 41% of GOP voters voted against Sen. John Cornyn in Marchs Texas primary. And there are many competitive primaries to watch in the months ahead (in Kansas, Mississippi, and South Carolina). But right now, the establishment has been fighting back and it appears to have the early edge in many of Mays contests. They ignored them in 2010, the Cook Political Reports Jennifer Duffy says of the establishment against the Tea Party. In 2012, they tried to be one of them. And in 2014, theyre just fighting back.

Democrats trying to influence these GOP primaries

Of course, one other thing is happening in these GOP primaries: Democrats are trying to influence their outcome. In North Carolina, Sen. Kay Hagans (D) campaign is up with this VERY interesting radio ad: Heres Republican Senate candidate Thom Tillis describing Obamacare: Its a great idea. Thats right, Thom Tillis called Obamacare a great idea. Geez, you think the Hagan camp is suggesting to North Carolina GOP voters that Tillis is an Obamacare-loving RINO? And while Democrats have done nothing overtly in Georgia, theres no doubt theyd love for either Broun or Gingrey to make the runoff. But for every action, theres an equal and opposite reaction: Weve been told that establishment Republicans will do everything they can to aid a Thom Tillis or a Jack Kingston in a runoff -- if theyre facing a Tea Party candidate.

Watching the Dem primary in Pennsylvania

Meanwhile, the biggest Democratic primary in May is the Pennsylvania gubernatorial contest (May 20) for the right to take on vulnerable Gov. Tom Corbett (R) in November. The relatively new front-runner in that race is businessman Tom Wolf, who shot up in the polls due to his early TV ad onslaught. Also running: Rep. Allyson Schwartz (D-PA) and state Treasurer Rob McCord.

May Primary Showdowns To Test Tea Party's Relevance

Assembly's tea party firebrand, Tim Donnelly, cools his rhetoric

SACRAMENTO Tim Donnelly arrived at the Assembly in late 2010 with big plans.

First on his list: a sweeping crackdown on illegal immigration. A plan to dismantle the state's air quality board was close behind.

In a Capitol dominated by Democrats, those proposals, unsurprisingly, went nowhere. And the cool reception extended to Donnelly himself, one of the Legislature's few tea party disciples.

The Republican from Twin Peaks, near Lake Arrowhead, had vowed during his campaign that he was "going to Sacramento to start the war," and he kept up the provocative oratory once he landed.

Donnelly is now running for governor, campaigning on many of the themes he sounded in his initial Assembly run: personal liberty, low taxes and small government. But even as he rails against the political establishment, he says that serving in the Legislature has changed him, particularly in how he deals with political adversaries.

"Instead of looking for ways I can do a frontal assault against this massive wall, I found a way to chip away at a single brick," Donnelly said. "The key is you have to pick the right brick, and that means people have to agree with it."

That's a notable departure from the approach he took when he first ran for office 31/2 years ago. Donnelly, formerly a small-business owner and leader in the Minuteman volunteer border-patrol group, told supporters that he had no interest in making friends in the Legislature.

"I'm going there to reach across the aisles to the enemies of freedom and annihilate them and pound them into the ground and take back our power," he said at a Tea Party Express rally in Barstow in October 2010.

He promised legislation based on a controversial immigration law passed in Arizona, parts of which have since been overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court. It was the first bill he introduced.

The measure would have ended "sanctuary cities" by ordering state and local officials to comply with federal immigration laws. It would also have imposed strict penalties on businesses that did not verify the immigration status of employees.
