The know-it-alls failed to report that this was not just a loss---it was a 12 point political slaughter. Congressional Quarterly reported NO sitting leader ever lost an election. The victorious Brat ran as Cantor's "TERM LIMIT"---a good slogan for other Republicans.
WRT the amnesty issue----the miniscule Hispanic vote is overly-hyped and pumped-up to scare vote-crazed Dems---its at a nothing 10 per cent now and for the for-seeable future.
Brat's winning opposition to it puts the kibosh to amnesty. But you know the execrable Obama will see this as his "right" to an Executive Order.
Starting now, Dems are on notice---if Obo moves on this unilaterally----Americans will insist Dems demand his resignation
I’ve called Cantor’s DC office, as well as my own Pubbie Rep’s office, asking if Cantor is planning to immediately resign his Majority *Leader*ship position. As of this morning, they didn’t know.
I told them he should, as VA has sent Cantor a clear message....Get out!
Call Cantor’s and your Rep’s (pubbie) offices and demand he resign the position.
I bet not many Hispanics voted in that GOP primary in that district, I wonder what % of that entire district is hispanic.
