Cantor

Will our boy's new employer be providing him with flags, or will he have to bring his own to NYC?"After [Teabagger challenger David] Brat's victory, 'many analysts accused Eric Cantor of paying more attention to Wall Street than to the people of Virginia's 7th District,' Kevin Broughton, a spokesman for the Tea Party Patriots Citizens Fund, a super-political action committee that supports Brat, said in an e-mailed statement.

Jim Himes (New Dem-CT), Wall Street's candidate for the next DCCC ChairmanIn her new book, A Fighting Chance, Elizabeth Warren spent a little time explaining how Wall Street tried sabotaging her campaign for Senate. Scott Brown was their boy and they shoveled more money into his campaign than any campaign in the country. He was the #1 recipient of their political contributions.

Not many people saw it coming and typically lame and incompetent Republican polling firms declared authoritatively that Cantor had nothing too worry about.

Last year Steve Israel and his band of incompetent and corrupt DCCC staffers treated Wayne Powell, the courageous Democrat who ran against Eric Cantor, shabbily that this year-- predictably-- Israel got the result he wanted: no credible Democratic candidate bothering to challenge Cantor. A well-connected Powell backer told me earlier this year that the consensus among Democrats in the district was that it was senseless to run while Pelosi still had Israel as the DCCC chair and he was undercutting Cantor opponents.VA-07 (R+10) would be a tough slog for any Democrat.

Barbara Comstock always pretends she's normal. She isn'tWhen I first started the DWT Book Store, David Brock's story about his journey out of political darkness, Blinded By The Right, was one of the very first selections. The 2002 bestseller exposed, first-hand, the hypocrisy among the blue chip and craven Beltway wing nuts with whom he had been associating.

Crazy BratSteve Israel, whose Long Island district has a rare 0 PVI (equally split between Democrats and Republicans) doesn't challenge any Republican leaders. All the House GOP leaders-- every single one of them-- has immunity and in return, Israel, the worst choice as a DCCC chair in history, is the only incumbent in a 0 PVI district that isn't a battleground.

During the Vietnam War I never thought I'd actually return to the U.S. I was so ashamed of what my country was doing to the people of Southeast Asia. But one morning I woke up in Amsterdam and realized I had been dreaming in Dutch. I decided to go home and I was back in America within 2 weeks. I had been away for nearly seven years and I had a real period of readjustment, especially when I washed up in San Francisco, a city I had never lived in.

Thomas Kean, Sr., the former New Jersey Governor, not the crackpot son ("Jr."), didn't bat an eye last week when he made a point by mentioning that "my party is nuts today." And he was very clear that he was talking about the Republican national party, not the New Jersey state GOP. And it's all about what's happened to the GOP with the back-to-back defeats of mainstream conservatives John McCain and Mitt Romney by [African-American] Barack Hussein Obama.
