The Tea Party members of the GOP in the House have stated that they are going to keep Boner as the Speaker because he "listens" to them and this fiasco wasn't his fault, but the fault of the Moderate GOP members in the House. When they say he "listens" to them, they really mean he is too weak to do anything but what they say. So his "weakness" becomes a strength for him as far as keeping his position as Speaker of the House.
