Count me as one of those who believe that Florida’ own John Mica will be granted a waiver by Speaker Boehner to keep his chairmanship of the House Transportation Committee.

Mica is an old school, pork barrel patronage kind ‘o Congressman. The sort of establishment type who will stick with Boehner. And Boehner needs the support of as many of those as he can round up to stave off the nonetheless inevitable backstab by Cantor or whoever else the rebellious youth of the GOP round up to push him out.
