I believe Cantor felt like he had to brush it off by agreeing that he does not want Obama to fail to avoid being tagged in the press with that label. I also believe that it was a mistake on his part...even though it was a very small part of the interview.

He should have looked straight into Stephanopoulos eyes and said that in as much as any policy or initiative that Obama got behind (like the stimulus package or this budget) dismantled or destroyed our core values of less government, small government, less taxation, or the free market, then yes, we would not only want it to fail, but would work tirelessly on principle to do all in our power to insure it did fail.

That was the answer this bogus question wa begging IMHO.

It's a shame I'm not in Congress.
