Good article by Jeffrey Lord but the headline isn't helpful. Boehner is by no means a coward. He stands firm for his goals without fear because he knows no one will stop him. The cowards are House Republicans who are afraid of Boehner and won't stand up to him on behalf of those who elected them. (click paragraphs to enlarge)

===========================
Added: From the article regarding the Establishment group running ads attacking conservative Republicans and thereby nullifying all Americans who voted for them: Former Minn. Republican Senator Norm Coleman (who lost to Al Franken) was paid half a million dollars for chairing the GOP crony/Bush group AAN for 3 years. Coleman is now a lobbyist for Saudi Arabia and others. Also part of AAN today is GOP loser Rick Berg. Berg lost his 2012 bid for Senate in North Dakota. Then you have ex-GOP congressmen Vin Weber and Tom Reynolds on AAN staff. Reynolds greased the skids for the radical left takeover of the US when in 2006 as head of the NRCC, Republicans lost 29 seats and Nancy Pelosi became Speaker of the House. Two years later, Reynolds quit to become a lobbyist.
===========================
AAN begins multi-million dollar effort to once and for all nullify American voters and elections won by Republicans:
3/6/15, "House freshmen Republicans vow to press conservative demands," Reuters, David Lawder and Richard Cowan
"The American Action Network also launched a $525,000 ad campaign on Friday to thank 20 House Republicans who voted for the Homeland Security funding bill, calling them "conservative champions." The group said the campaigns are the start of a multi-million dollar effort to promote "center-right priorities."
These will likely include a transportation funding debate, a mid-year fight over the future of the Export-Import Bank, and a battle over raising the debt limit and approving a budget."...

John Boehner’s Coward Complex
Let’s pull back the curtain.
First is the group behind these commercials, the American Action Network. The board is chaired by ex-Republican Senator from Minnesota Norm Coleman, who lost his seat to Democrat Al Franken. It includes the losing establishment GOP candidate for the senate in North Dakota, Rick Berg, the aforementioned ex-aides to Boehner and Priebus along with ex-GOP congressmen Vin Weber and Tom Reynolds. And, of course, ex-Nixon aide, Fred Malek.
To illustrate the game, take Reynolds, who is a “Senior Strategic Policy Advisor” at Nixon Peabody LLP. Tellingly, he is not just a former Republican Congressman from New York, he is a former Chairman of the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) and a senior member of the House Ways and Means Committee. In his capacity as NRCC Chairman Reynolds lost 29 Republican seats in the 2006 elections, losing GOP control of the House and thus making Nancy Pelosi Speaker of the House. Two years later he voluntarily gave up his seat to become…a lobbyist.
