  1. I was in Richmond, Va as the primary neared. Cantor's ads were blatant lies and evidence of politics of personal destruction. I've long thought Cantor a putz, but the ads alone would've had me voting for Brat.

  2. His campaign manager seems to be a fan of Dr Ron Paul. I hope/ pray/ suspect that Mr Brat and Dr Paul will have many discussions over the next few months.
