Of course, what are the chances of a Dem defeating the Teabagger? I hear that's a very conservative district.

In a stunning upset propelled by tea party activists, House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-Va.) was defeated in Tuesday’s congressional primary, with insurgent David Brat delivering an unpredicted and devastating loss to the second most powerful Republican in the House who has widely been touted as a future speaker.

... for Cantor to be out-conservatived.


I hope these clowns appreciate that they were the ones to create this monster.

From Day One of Obama’s presidency, Eric Cantor has used every dirty trick to block the Democratic agenda. There are so many big issues we could make progress on without Republicans like Eric Cantor in our way: raising the minimum wage, passing comprehensive immigration reform, student loan reform, and making millionaires and billionaires pay their fair share just to name a few.

And tonight, Cantor has been thrown out by the Tea Party base that he’s kowtowed to at every turn.

If you’re also glad that Cantor’s been shown the door, sign our card to let him know:
