Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsEric Cantor gets a credible primary opponent on his right.
Apparently, the Tea Party is too confused to recognize his own, so they are fielding somebody else, who thinks Cantor is too moderate.
Also, it seems all his primary opponents want to talk to us about their Christian background, though this one does it more subtly than the other one.
Hopefully, we can field a decent candidate on our side on this race.

I think its safe to say it will definitely rattle some cages when it comes out, he says.
He tells me he intends to target Cantor for his support of the Murray-Ryan budget deal, as well as his stances on immigration reform. Hell also go after the majority leader on the Affordable Care Act. He hasnt moved the ball down the field at all, Brat says.

(130,860 posts)but I tend to doubt it. I think it ended up costing him out of pocket, aside from the aggravation.
Liked him very much, and spent a lot of time and a fair amount of $$$ on his campaign, as did other DUers.
