When California lawmaker David Dreier's name emerged last month as a temporary successor to freshly indicted Majority Leader Tom DeLay, murmuring began among a faction of conservatives who said Dreier was too moderate for the job.
House Speaker Dennis Hastert ultimately gave the slot to Missouri Rep. Roy Blunt, while giving Dreier, R-Glendora, many of the leadership responsibilities.
Whether right-wing members derailed Dreier's ascension is questionable.
