Thanks!
So, I can certainly buy that personal dislike and anger at the GOP leadership played an important role in Cantor’s ouster. With Immigration playing an important role as well and both acting in concert to give Brat the nomination.
Keep in mind that Cantor was speaking out of both sides of his mouth on immigration.
He was saying that he is blocking/fighting an amnesty bill, and at the same time he was saying he supports a Dream Act amnesty bill for kids who grew up here, further saying it comes from his religious beliefs(??? he's Jewish).
It might just be that his dishonesty did him in rather than opposition to a Dream act idea.
