I read the transcript. Todd was trying to trip him up on Syria. I assisted Brat in his campaign, drafted and funded robocalls on Cantor in his district, and worked with his staff on how to deal with the immigration/amnesty issue.

Brat is articulating what I and now Jeff Sessions have been advocating, i.e., link jobs and wages to immigration, legal and illegal. He went after the Chamber of Commerce and the corporate class. Brat is really the first one to do that effectively. I am very excited about Dave Brat. He is bright, articulate, and provides the template to defeat the Dems and attract minority voters.

And despite the chattering class views on why Cantor lost, the issue that resonated was amnesty and Cantor's support of his version (Kids Act, which he never provided any details) of Obama's unconstitutional DACA and Cantor's comment a few days before election day that he could work with Obama on certain immigration reform efforts while the flood of unaccompanied children from Central America was streaming across the border. And Cantor also supported Jeff Denham's illegal aliens in the military, the ENLIST Act, at a time when the military is downsizing and forcing tens of thousands from active duty.

Jeff Sessions article, Becoming the Party of Work--How the GOP can help struggling Americans, and itself" should be required reading for any Rep in office or seeking office.

FYI: I should have been more clear on my comment. I was referring to the foreign policy question on Syria, which Brat skillfully avoided.
