Then it got really rambunctious. In the room of downcast Cantor allies, a new energy suddenly erupted — but not the kind they wanted election night. A group of immigration activists stormed the ballroom, screaming and waving a flag. “What do we want? Immigration reform! When do we want it? Now!”
A few Cantor supporters tried to block the protestors’ entrance into the ballroom, and pushing and shoving ensued. And before they reached the microphone, one Cantor supporter threw his glass of wine onto a female protestor. She swore at him in return.

Bad timing. It was all set up to come in after he won to show the need for him to support amnesty. Now it reinforces the notion of why he lost to the entire rino world.

All bought and payed for by Obama and his democrat minions.
It’s all part of the Obama\democrat con job being played on the American people. I pray to God we’re not falling for it.

Why the dust-up with the Cantor folks? I thought these people were “natural Republican voters.”

From the sounds of it the Cantor supporters at the event behave like liberals. They loved the illegals until they were no longer useful and then turn on them immediately. “Get a job”?

Now, I must admit to being divorced from politics, having not voted since 1992.
So in truth I am an outsider.
And it comes as no surprise to anyone that every time I heard Cantors name and a description of what he was doing, I was thinking “what a democrat!”
Seriously.

It most definitely reinforces the notion of why he lost!
Brat made it about Cantor’s Amnesty and now that Cantor has lost his supporters are screaming “What do we want? Immigration reform! When do we want it? Now!”
This was ENTIRELY about Amnesty. Note well RINOs.
