A poll conducted late last month for House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-Va.) shows him with a wide lead over challenger David Brat heading toward next Tuesday's Republican primary election. The poll, shared with Post Politics, shows Cantor with a 62 percent to 28 percent lead over Brat, an economics professor running to Cantor's right. Eleven percent say they are undecided.

The last laugh may be on the conservatives. Cantor is still in the House until after the next election and now can push his amnesty with others without having to worry about an election.

The lesson here is an amnesty booster with every advantage just lost their primary in epic fashion.

He may want to lead a scorched earth lame duck campaign but I seriously doubt anyone will be foolish enough to follow.

“Cantor internal poll claims 34-point lead over primary opponent Brat”

Well when you depend on a poll shoved up your @ss, then you shouldn’t expect anything good as a result.

Like Cantor or anybody in the GOPe would give a damn about that anyway. Corporate money is piling into their bank accounts to support amnesty. Cantor can get himself a nice lobbying job or take some time off and run again in 2 years.

Don't kid yourself. No one in DC wants to be sent home in this manner. No one.

Is it true that the Dems do NOT have a candidate for Fall - i.e. will run unopposed?

Dunno - need a VA creeper's input.

That would be hilarious, though. I'm sure they expected Cantor in a walk.

I'm hoping the check Cantor's people wrote for this poll has cleared.

Cantor’s pollster also suggests he’s a hit with the ladies and the envy of many lesser men. Bwahahahahah.

Good riddance!

A poll conducted late last month...

Everyone knows that polling firms only poll Democrats.

So.... conservatives should have not let him lose the primary?

I think having to vociferously counter Cantor for a few months is probably worth it.

And a chicken with it's head cut off will still dance around for awhile but it sends a chill to the other "roosters" who crow about "amnesty"
