John Boehner
John Boehner retains his position as Speaker of the
House in the U.S. Congress. Boehner is one of President Obama’s most
outspoken critics. The two are sure to square off on a number of
serious issues for the remainder of his term, as the Republican led
Congress, debate legislation they aim to write into law.
Barack Obama
Obama is being referred to as a “lame duck
president” a term often invoked when the commander-in-chief’s party
suffers losses in Congress eroding their majority voting
capabilities. President Obama for his part is relying on pushing
through his political plans via executive order, but things still
could get messy. If they do not work together the Democrats and
Republicans will not accomplish anything for the remainder of
Obama’s term.
