Compare and contrast - Cantor v Brat in VA and Graham v Bright/et al in SC ...

This [Brat v Cantor] was a race in which conservative media, talk radio and the internet, played a large role. Mark Levin and Laura Ingraham gave powerful support to Brat, while blogger Mickey Kaus was relentless in his coverage of Cantor's flaws.

So why didn't Levin, Ingraham, Palin, others ... also send some love toward Lee Bright?

In SC the problem was too many candidates. I think there were something like 9. When it was just Mace or Bright, the prospects looked much better but it ended up with the other 8 trying to marginalize each other rather than focusing on Graham.

They will learn from this and if the Senate goes much stronger to the conservative side, you will see the RINO’s start to tact to which way the wind is blowing.

The one positive thing here is that this defeat will have a definite effect on the rest of the primaries.
