Reaction from Conservatives was excited and celebratory. Video of Marco Rubio telling the Values Voter Summit crowd the news, to thunderous applause. Heritage Action tweeted their approval, Cruz claimed Boehner is finally leading, Erick Erickson said that Boehner kept Conservatives shut out, Gun Owners of America even went after him, and FreedomWorks wanted people to RT if they ‘helped’ get Boehner out. Video of President Obama’s positive description of Boehner’s characteristics as he exits. Donald Trump spoke at the Values Voter Summit, sponsored by Family Research Council.
