Budget mess due to Cantor's bad behavior. GET HIM OUT!

Bob Woodward's new book makes it clear that the current budget mess is largely the responsibility of Eric Cantor's bad behavior last year. Cantor put his own political interests ahead of what was best for the nation--this year Virginians need to put Eric Cantor out of office.

Bob Woodward's new book, The Price of Politics, is one of the first history books about last summer's debt crisis and how close the world came to being sent into financial chaos. One person has to to come out looking worse for wear, and it seems to be Eric Cantor.
He quickly became the center of attention during the debt talks last summer when he repeatedly pissed off the President. Boehner was in charge of the Republican's side of the table, but Cantor was oh so desperate to be number one. It showed.
Now, we have not read the book. But judging from the Daily Beast's preview of the "juiciest bits," it's Cantor who is going to be the one looking the worst on the other side.
He Fell for Joe Biden's Mind Games
During the debt negotiations, Joe Biden was tasked with befriending the enemy to draw out new information. Cantor fell for it because they could bond over being the overlooked guys at the table:
