Well, I was dead wrong about this not being competitive, decisive 11 point win for Brat. Looks like Cantor’s negative ads backfired (and it was wrong to paint Brat’s non-partisan service on the “Joint Advisory Board of Economists” as being a part of the Kaine Administration)
As you say, hope he’s not a Paulbot. Not to be paranoid, but unfortunately you always have to worry about that when someone sounds a libertarian note.
Safe seat, the general election is irrelevant, no matter how much the WA Post hopes their boy can win (Cantor’s body is still warm and already they are profiling the rat). That freakish moonbat, Mike Dickerson, is not on the ballot. The rat state committee selected their own college professor, Jack Trammell.
In a post election interview, Brat gave credit right off the bat to God and mentioned the nation’s moral decline. Paulbots usually don’t pay much mind to God and moral decline.
That guy was a genuine psychotic. He was attacking people on Twitter like a five year old. He would have been a perfect candidate for the dems as he represents the pervert values of the DNC under zero.
From what I have read the district was gerrymandered to make it solidly red. I was also impressed listening to Brat lay out his platform with Hannity. Although I told others that the only clip the MSM will play from him is "Thanking God", as the left will try and say he is a "religious extremist".
Glad this RINO is gone, I think Brit Hume ran off to the bar he seemed like he was ready to break down into tears!
This one shocked me. I never saw it coming. But I’ve since read that Eric Cantor had an arrogant staff who ignored constituents and was rude to other Congressional staffers. Cantor himself didn’t pay attention to what was happening back home until the final weeks of the primary, than run heavy-handed negative ads which backfired.
The real tragedy is that Lindsay Graham will be returning to the Senate.
