[Bo]

Jim Jordan is making redistricting easy for the Ohio GOP.

U.S. Rep. Jim Jordan's open defiance of Speaker John Boehner's efforts to solve the debt-ceiling crisis could cost the Urbana Republican his safe seat in next year's election.

Two Republican sources deeply involved in configuring new Ohio congressional districts confirmed to The Dispatch today that Jordan's disloyalty to Boehner has put him in jeopardy of being zeroed out of a district.

The chairman of the Republican Study Committee? Sounds like a reasonable target to me!

Now Boehner is saying that he won't target Jordan. He could change his mind, though, or think something else in private.
