So, Ryan will run for speaker to save the country from Obama and the Dems

and all this while he does not want to do that, but need to be able to look in his kids' eyes and tell them he did all he could to save the country.

And all that only if the GOP caucus get on their knees and accept his conditions. Sorry, if I was a GOP congresspeople, I would tell him to STFU.

As a Democrat, I am just insulted.
