Amen. Ted needs to examine the defeat of Boehner's right man--Eric Cantor.
Then-House Majority Leader, Eric Cantor (R-Va), was considered untouchable and inevitable.
<><> Cantor had tons of money---spent 26X times his primary opponent's $100K.
<><> Cantor consistently polled an astounding 34 points ahead of his unknown opponent.
<><> Cantor was considered "inevitable" and "untouchable".
<><> Cantor had no ethics problems.
<><> Cantor sucked-up to an anti-tea party group.
<><> Cantor sucked up to the latino vote.
<><> Cantor showboated his leadership---was deeply into (gag) "diversity."
=============================================
BY CONTRAST HIS PRIMARY OPPONENT:
<><> ran as Cantor's TERM LIMIT
<><> Brat roundly opposed, and was vociferous against amnesty.
<><> Brat ran as a staunch conservative (now in Congress he has a bonafide 100% conservative rating.)
<><> On election day, Brat got 18,000 more Repub out to the polls than the previous election that elected Cantor.
