re: #172 HappyWarrior

I think what Cantor’s defeat does show you is how extremely nuts the GOP base has become. I am with Frank. Cantor never actually supported or did anything meaningful on immigration reform but it seems that he was defeated for not being openly hateful enough. It’s scary to me honestly the direction that party’s going and knowing they could get the Senate next year or worse the presidency in three years.

I don’t know a great deal about the political climate of VA-07. But the population in the district is 75% white, only 4% Asian and 5% Hispanic. What the hell are the residents there so freaked out about? They haven’t been “overwhelmed by the inferior dusky hordes of foreign lands.”
