"Barely a day goes by without another Republican jumping ship from Speaker John Boehner's disastrous Republican Congress - because House Republicans aren't giving up their reckless behavior and focusing on the right priorities like creating jobs," Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee Executive Director Kelly Ward wrote in a statement after Coble announced his retirement. "With another fiscal showdown just a few months away, House Republicans are losing their appetite for the irresponsible Tea Party agenda and are unwilling to defend it to the American people next year."


Fifteenth Republican Incumbent Quits House

Rep. Howard Coble, a Korean War veteran and 15-term House Republican from North Carolina, today became the 15th House Republican incumbent to decide not to seek reelection to the House of Representatives in next fall's congressional midterm elections.
Coble becomes the ninth Republican to retire, while six others have launched campaigns for the Senate.
The aging Republican Party, which mourned the death of its longest-serving member, Rep. Bill Young, last month, could present House Speaker John Boehner with his toughest defense of the Speaker's gavel next year.
