So Majority Leader Eric Cantor has lost to a Tea Party candidate. Correction, Majority Leader Eric Cantor was crushed by a Tea Party candidate. In some ways, Cantor’s exit is a political tragedy. It shows that flirting with the existential enemies of the Constitution, of liberty, and of core Republican principles can bear a very heavy price. I’m convinced that had Cantor resisted the siren calls of the left on two key issues — immigration and giving Eric Holder renewed power over state elections — he would have won tonight.

I wonder if her ever called Brat to wish him well.
Sore Cantorman.
Something bad has happened to Sensenbrenner in the last few years. Is he senile or has he gone Democrat?? Same thing I guess.

Maybe I’m wrong.
Unknown is the trade.
What did Sensenbrener get for sponsoring the bill?
I can’t think of anything that would justify the action
Hillary must be sweating bullets.
The swarming at the border is Democrats only hope. They are using Bill Clinton's election formula---letting in so many means so many Democrat votes. Joe Biden must have the Clinton formula in hand. He is quoted as saying "We need a constant, unrelenting stream coming across the border."
Vote-crazed Dems are scared stiff....relying on the diseased, unwashed hordes from the Third World to save their seats. The buzz is (after they are registered as Dems) DHS is bussing the hordes in groups of 500 to US cities-----probably in districts of vulnerable Dems. Ringers will be bussed in election day to vote the names of the newly registered Dems (too busy to vote---standing in line to board the US gravy train).
We're dealing with vile people... our enemy's strong in their evil.
Cantor and Sensenbrenner voted personally to put Holder in Contempt of Congress almost 2 years ago this June 29. Their solution to the contemptible Holder, give him more power to steal elections from Republicans. Genius. Those bigoted ignorant Tea Partiers would never come up with an idea like that.
NO Republican has EVER said voters don’t need ID.....SENSENBRENNER is the ONLY one......VERY BAD.
There are two basic problems with your belief.
First, letting illegals stay (which is what is encouraging them to come) is considerably different from making them citizens, which gives them the right to vote. THAT requires Congressional action, at least for the generation that comes in illegally.
Second, if the illegals register to vote (via motor voter) and then actually do so, to have any sort of substantive impact it will need to happen at a massive enough level where there is no way to hide and/or deny it. And states/localities very much have the ability to go after illegals that do, criminally.
The big problem, absent Congressional action to open the doors to citizenship (dead, dead, dead at the moment due to the Cantor loss), is the children of illegals who will be born here. But that’s an issue that has already created a situation where it’s exceedingly difficult, if not impossible, for a Republican to win the Presidency.
“NO Republican has EVER said voters don’t need ID.....SENSENBRENNER is the ONLY one......VERY BAD.”
You haven’t been following RAND PAUL very closely then.
I have NEVER heard him say that.
It’s easy to find on Google.

Someone made him an offer he couldn’t refuse.
