Here’s what I don’t understand: I’m thrilled that the amnesty pushing illegal loving RINO Cantor has lost. HOWEVER, in South Carolina, an even BIGGER amnesty pusher and Obama butt buddy Miss Lindsay Gayham has won re-election with over a majority of the vote. I don’t understand. Yes, Graham outspent his opponents massively, but so did Cantor. Not to offend any South Carolinian Freepers but...are Virginians simply smarter?

South Carolina was a state wide vote (senator) compared to Cantor’s seat which had a whopping 65,000 total votes for the Representative seat. Also, Cantor only had one challenger - Brat; Graham had six.

I haven’t heard Graham push the amnesty/illegal stuff lately; I think Cantor has been talking about the Dream Act.

Those are some reasons I see. It’s a shame there wasn’t one challenger to Graham.....he might have been able to gain some traction with the right support.

too many opponents splitting the conservative vote and resources. too much pride. none of them would drop out, so conservatives could coalesce around one candidate. i sent money to brat. couldn’t send any money to SC.
