It’s not up to Boehner anymore. He’s lost control of the House GOP and there are enough Republican dipshits in both the House and Senate who buy into the “Default Is No Big Deal” fail.

We’re fucked, and for no reason at all.

It is up to him. He can waive the Hastert Rule and pass a clean debt limit increase with Democrats and a few Republicans. He has to understand that its the end of the GOP if he triggers a global financial meltdown. But he has to wait until the last minute to do it to appease enough of the crazies to keep his speakership.
