Description In a race framed by scandal, Republican Reps. Roy Blunt and John Boehner pledged action on a reform agenda Sunday as they launched competing campaigns to succeed Tom DeLay as House majority leader.

“We’ve had a tough run recently, some of it of our own making,” Boehner, R-Ohio, wrote fellow Republicans, whose decade-long hold on power will be challenged by Democrats next fall.

“But I also believe that if we are able to renew our energy and our commitment to our basic principles, the best is yet to come.”
