John Boehner today took to ABC's This Week to offer his characteristically blunt assessment of JPMorgan, and promptly asserted that Dodd-Frank wouldn't have averted the bank's $3 billion blunder: "There's no law against stupidity. No law against stupid trades. As long as there's no risk of a taxpayer bailout—they should be held accountable by the market and their shareholders. And they are." Boehner also offered his take on a super PAC's scrapped plan to bash President Obama over Jeremiah Wright, calling it "nonsense (that) shouldn't happen. The election's gonna be about the economy. ... And I think Gov. Romney's prescriptions are much better." Elsewhere on your Sunday dial, as per Politico:

• Karl Rove on the Wright plan: "Trying to dredge up Jeremiah Wright, right or wrong, after this issue was litigated four years ago by John McCain deciding not to litigate it was stupid."
• Nancy Pelosi on whether she thinks Dems can retake the House: "Yes, I do. I think it would be dead even." The former speaker counts 75 seats as in play.
• Boehner on the prospect of losing his job: "I don't believe that's gonna happen. I think most of our members are doing very well. But again, you never know what's gonna happen over the next six months. My job is to make sure our team is prepared."
• Paul Ryan on whether he's being vetted for veep: “I’m not going to get into the internal process of another campaign. I’m focused on doing my job here as a Wisconsin congressman, as a budget committee chairman. So I’m just not going to get into that speculation.”
