    [​IMG] This is one of the few times you'll get agreement from me, arizonaJack. I consider Cantor a mean-spirited hack, on his best day. Brat will very likely replace him in Congress, which probably won't be any improvement except for the fact that Brat will be a freshman member rather than a powerful wheeler-dealer like Cantor.

    Ole bitch face Cantor has sneered his last.

    This is what a party at war with itself looks like.

    A great victory for the Tea Party.

    This is welcome news. I was beginning to fear that the Baggers were having mojo issues. Still, if they want to keep the program moving forward they'll have to pull a few more rabbits out of their hat in the coming months. Cantor's loss to whoever the Bagger is who beat him is cause for satisfaction on a number of levels, but it would be premature to break out the champagne.

    I don't expect the Tea Party to have victories such as this on a widespread scale. It wouldn't surprise me, however, to see a reasonable amount this election cycle. People are tired of the malaise from both established parties. That's why I believe there will be a few more Tea Partiers elected here and there and a rout of the democrats in November.

    It's a fun time to be watching politics. Who knows... maybe Cantor will pull a Joe Lieberman and run as an Independent and win!

    The from the guy who predicted Romney's victory.

    It is still unclear whether Cantor is even allowed to run.

    Maybe the Tea Party will be that elusive third party everyone (on both sides) keep asking for? I mean what's wrong with advocating a government that spends less than it takes in?

    The election was so close, Romney probably would have won had Obama not lied to the American people. When I made my prediction, I couldn't account for Obama's lies because I didn't know them at the time.

    OK, when that's set in stone, get back with us. In the meantime, I'll say what I said before: MAYBE Cantor will pull a Joe Lieberman and run...

    Didn't Romney lose by 10 million votes? Wasn't it considered an electoral landslide?

    Anyway, I think the media is grasping at straws trying to figure out what went wrong. The polling was garbage. Cantor's polling was even worse. I suspect that there may have been some crossover voting going on. I guess they will figure it out eventually.

    Again, a mindless poorly thought out meme only the dumbest fools buy into. So you want smaller government? How much smaller? That seems like a basic question. Give me a simple percentage. Which services would you like to cut and by how much? Another basic question that goes unanswered by those that live for talking points and no substance. You have no idea do you? Typical Tea party nonsense.

    Could you guys be any more vacuous? Hard to imagine.

    And once again no one seems to be able to answer a simple question proving that stupid memes work on stupid people.

    You mean like;
    I am still waiting for the proof that the Koch brothers " own the Republicans in Ohio".
    How many jobs bills is Reid sitting on?
    etc.

    The billionaire Koch brothers and their political network are planning to spend almost $300 million during the 2014 election cycle, some of which will go toward a renewed effort to combat unprecedented carbon regulations unveiled by the Obama administration last month.

    According to The Daily Beast, industrialists Charles and David Koch will advance a new energy initiative this weekend at a California resort featuring Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) and libertarian political scientist Charles Murray. While its scope isn't clear yet, the group will be spearheaded by the Freedom Partners Chamber of Commerce, a 200-member organization that has funneled millions of dollars to various nonprofits in the Koch network.

    The new push comes in the wake of proposed EPA regulations that would cut carbon dioxide emissions from power plants by 30 percent. It also follows a February announcement from billionaire liberal investor Tom Steyer, a major advocate against the Keystone XL pipeline, that he will be undertaking his own $100 million initiativeto make climate change a key issue in 2014.

    Americans for Prosperity, the main political arm of the Kochs, is already planning a $125 million spending spree on other political projects across the country, according to Politico.

    Politically oriented nonprofits aren't the only beneficiaries of Koch money. The United Negro College Fund, which supports historically black colleges and universities,announced a $25 million grant last month from Koch Industries, Inc.

    The billionaire brothers are also a frequent topic of conversation in the Senate, where Democrats are calling for a constitutional amendment to restore Congress' power to regulate campaign finance after the Supreme Court struck down several fundraising restrictions. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) clashed on the matter during a recent Senate Judiciary Committee hearing.

    I did not realize that "Republicans in Ohio" had anything to do with Florida, the EPA, the UNCF, Reid, etc. Oh, well, that was more than I expected from you.

    BTW, just how does "some" of the Koch brothers money compare to Steyer's $100M?
