(the) 'BRAT beats Eric Cantor in Replug primary

It's the media's worst nightmare: a well educated Tea Party aligned candidate who is understandable and has a message that connects with moderates...
 
And it's reported Cantor will resign his leadership role in July.

He did do quite well dodging hard questions on the MSNBC interview.  I guess there is hope for him yet.

Sure, because we know MSNBC has such high moderate and conservative viewership.

Gives time for an orderly transition before the normal summer recess.

At least he appears to be going quietly, and not making noise about a write-in race as some speculated.
 
What does the viewership have to do with not answering questions?

Well I guess they will have to book someone else for tomorrow then. They missed out.

What about Fallon?
 
Fallon, Stewart most news/op-ed shows are OK. I don't much care for Fox either I don't who I dislike more fascist Neo-Cons or Socialist Liberal types.. To me both are an affront to individual liberty
 
Me thinks the TP has not read what Mr Brat as written.  I wonder if they caught this part.
 
 Can Christians force others to follow their ethical teachings on social issues? Note that consistency is lacking on all sides of this issue. The political Right likes to champion individual rights and individual liberty, but it has also worked to enforce morality in relation to abortion, gambling, and homosexuality. The Left likes to think of itself as the bulwark of progressive liberal individualism, and yet it seeks to progressively coerce others to fund every social program under the sun via majority rule. Houston, we have a problem. Coercion is on the rise. What is the root word for liberalism? (Answer: Liberty)
 
 
Reading some of the stuff he has written is disturbing.  
 
What exactly do you find so disturbing?

Apparently it resonated with enough people to turn out the vote. They seem to have set a record for a midterm...

I find his religious dogma intertwined with governance and capitalism very disturbing.
 
Given his religious dogma it is not surprising that Virgina voted for him.  His pollster said it was dems in an open primary.  Not sure I buy it but who knows.

This IS... soooooooo..friggin' PERFECT  !!!!!!!!!!!
 
This guy 'BRAT is a TEA-BAG looney,...and for us Dems,...This is EXACTLY what we want for the GOP,....to have thier party taken over by Neocons.
Whats left of the GOP, will only get to be in '1600...via a tour pass  for a Looooong time to come.
 
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha !
 
 
Im not sure how you considered brat as a tea party member, he didnt get any money from any of the tea party groups and cantor did...
 
in fact cantor ran saying that Brat was a liberal not a tea party member... and Brat never ran on a tea party platform... is making false claims the way you guys plan on winning this seat?..
 
or did you just take the talking points you were going to use with cantor, and scratch his name out and added Brat?
 
the Republican party is currently led by neocons, you dont get to remake that word into what you want it to be neocons are not teapartiers neocons are the dinosaurs in the office now
 
I don't think it has SET-IN yet...to us Dems, about how HUGE this is for us.
The PEE Party will Never reach the point that the 'normal' REPLUGS are, BUT they will Wreck havoc on that F-up party for a long time.
Hell, even with very good health, I may not get to see 4 more POTUS elections, But one thing is for DAM well sure, thanx to the PEE Party, I'll go to the 'Great Beyond'...never seeing a GD REPLUG sitting in '1600 ever again !
 
The REPUBLICAN PARTY.
 
The 'GIFT' that Keeps on 'GIVING'  !!!!!!!!!!!
 
It's very HUGE.
 
The people of the 7th District decided to be sheep no more. Slowly the voices of the people who draw a paycheck are being heard and it's not music to the Republicrat ears. Perhaps the era of Crony Capitalists is beginning to fade and a new day where I keep what I earn and you keep what you earn will soon be upon us.
