One day before the election for Speaker of the House, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell described outgoing Speaker John A. Boehner a “class act.” “I’m a big fan of Speaker Boehner,” McConnell said. “I think he’s done an outstanding job, not only for our party but for our country. I think the way in which he has handled his leaving the Congress has been a class act in every way.”
