I'm not opinionated Posts: 4597 Location: Online	I just hope the rest of Congress gets a wake up call and figures out that they are not immune to getting the boot. I really hope this is a sign of things to come. Now if the people of San Fran and Las Vegas would follow suit and boot Nancy and Harry. Never happen.

Famous for Not Complaining Posts: 8848 Location: Broxton, Ga	Not sure if this is a "big" win or not....and he was not supported by the Tea Party.....seems some are saying that since this was an open primary.....Dem voters were urged to vote of Brat........hence come November he will be easy picked off by the Dems............

That's exactly how I see it. Eric has now stepped down as House majority leader. Personally I think we've lost a good man.

Yep I have family that did just that. Dem's that voted against cantor. But I don't think they well get the district. AS FOR Cantor I will not miss him. I used to like him but he became to much inside the beltway. Edited by jbhoot 2014-06-11 1:51 PM

Cold hands and Warm Heart Location: oklahoma	Our system wasn't set up to become a career. You know, a person is elected as a young man and dies from old age while still in office. I'm glad he's gone .

Expert Posts: 4121 Location: SE Louisiana	Like so many others... he is out of touch with the people.. He was not even at home for the election... Guess he thought he had it sewed up because he threw so much money at it.... I'd like to see them all go...
