Eric Cantor to lose primary? [Update: Cantor Loses!!]

I think I saw a breaking news flash by on the phone...Cantor is resigning as majority leader?

Lol really? So he lost the primary and now he wants to take his ball and go home with only a couple months left in the Session?

So he gets evicted for a new tenant and his response is to try and burn the joint to the ground???

nobody is going to pick up the job well in just 30 days, and if actually important business came before Congress (I know, I know) it's gonna be like Keystone Kops up there. Lmao!
 
My neocon boss just said "we better not lose that seat because of this". In other words votes don't matter...they want the establishment pricks anointed.

If the seat is poisoned, does it really matter if it has (R) next to the name? Poisons still kills.

You're correct, there is a 'Sore Loser' law that prevents Cantor from running 3rd party. He is out.

That's bazaaro, because last night Congressman King stated that, "Brat winning pushes the GOP even further right..."

Maybe rep. Peter King needs to realize just how far left he stands on the ideology scale... (way left)

King can never seem himself, since he is just an empty meat puppet with about 5 different hands up his backside. Is he the Rovian King or the Sorosian King today, who knows? :D

Nah, they still have Boehner. He'll keep 'em in line till a new Majority leader is crowned, and unless Cantor was the guy in charge of programming the teleprompter, Boehner's not sweating it. Probably planning another purge as I type this.
 
Remember when Cantor threatened Amash?

http://www.nationalreview.com/article/354552/nsa-fight-jonathan-strong

Cantor pressed Amash to withdraw his amendment to stop the National Security Agency from collecting logs of every American’s phone calls and said he would work to provide a vote on the issue in a future bill.

But several of Cantor’s top aides, who were also present, gave what Amash thought was a more threatening overture: There’s bound to be a procedural technicality we can use to kill the amendment, they said, and we’re going to find it.

The meeting, which has not been previously reported, underscores the efforts of some in House leadership to stop the proposal, which was offered as an amendment to the Department of Defense appropriations bill, from coming to a vote, according to documents reviewed by National Review and to interviews with participants.The amendment had already been through the procedural wringer, with the House parliamentarian’s office giving an initial approval that it was “in order” to change its mind only as outside parties, including GOP leadership, weighed in.

He has no power any more, and cannot leverage his position to whip votes by doling out favors or threatening punishment. Therefore he is completely useless in that role.

Oh I know..I just find it hilarious at the butthurt being shown not only by the establishment but their shills as well. The fact that they feel so in disarray appeals to the anarchist in me.

National Security/Foreign Policy
Ronald Reagan said it best: “Peace through strength.” A strong military is essential to the success of our nation. We must secure our borders, support the Armed Forces, both at home and abroad, and maintain a strong national defense in order to secure our country’s future. In addition, I support a full investigation into the Benghazi attacks.

This is the part that stuns me (along with almost everyone) What can we learn from this though? This guy ran a small campaign and kept it local. What ese though/ there has to be more to the story. Were the commercials? debates? anything? Did door-to-door seriously do it? What did his literature look like?

Here's the .pdf campaign flier from his website. It's a mix of plain english on one side and nice graphics on the other. Nothing spectacular though.

I read that Cantor dodged all debates.

So Cantor resigns from House leader ONLY BECAUSE, the establishment GOP doesn't want some true representative or TEA PARTY congressman from becoming leader.

Look for that POS John Boehner to pick another establishment insider to lead the House and protect the criminals.

PS: I did post a few times that it was Congressman Eric Cantor that installed the amendment to remove much of the transparency and disclosure of Congress members and family members insider trading stocks, investments, and earmarks to friends and family... aka STOCK ACT.

Not one Media Outlet has reported this on the air... don't forget Cantor's wife, Bankster, Wall Streeter, board of directors, she/Eric has profited.

That should and always be a huge red flag to even the apathetic and lazy public voters. Cantor is a corrupt and conniving racketeering politician and people in a Virginian Congressional district woke up, with the help of a grassroots TEA PARTY candidate wjo exposed the graft and corruption on Capital Hill.
