I knew a “cantor” was the person in a synagogue who leads the singing and chanting.
I assumed he was not Orthodox, which means I also assumed he was center-left, but I never tried to verify either assumption.
Over the last year, I came to understand that he was part and parcel of the GOP Amnesty Leadership.
His defeat was wonderful news.
Not that his absence will help.
The GOP Leadership will still stuff Amnesty down our threats, possibly before the November election, or absolutely after it.
“Cantor” is Latin for “singer.” The lead singer in the Catholic church is also called a “cantor.”
There is a Hebrew word as well but a lot of synagogues don’t use it.
