Double down, Tea Party.
Double down.
***
"House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (Va.), the chamber’s second-ranking Republican, was badly beaten in a primary contest Tuesday by an obscure professor with tea party backing — a historic electoral surprise that left the GOP in chaos....The dour and businesslike Cantor had embraced confrontation enough to alienate some establishment types....But he also had made moves that alienated the party’s confrontational wing. Cantor, for instance, had championed a Republican version of the Dream Act, which would enable some illegal immigrants who entered the country as children to qualify for in-state college tuition rates. Although he never brought the legislation to the House floor, his support for the idea irritated staunch opponents of immigration reform." Robert Costa, Laura Vozzella and David A. Fahrenthold in The Washington Post.
