The Democrats dancing on Cantor's grave really don't have a lot of foresight.

At this point, I'm with DIM. There really isnt actual space to the right, there's jusy space with the inability to be media trained. I don't think it's short-sighted to note this isn't a bad thing

Immigration is dead, if it wasn't already. The Dems should continue to talk about it though....constantly.

You gotta love the Republicans trying to spin this as "oh no, now nothing will get done in Washington." Give me a fucking break.

In other news, ISIS, the Al Qaeda offshoot, just captured the city of Mosul, seized the airport, have starting sending US made equipment into Syria, and one of my old battalion commanders just sent me a note on FB stating that at least one Iraqi two star general has defected to ISIS.

a Yglesias tweet re: Cantor -

RT @costareports: I'm on phone now w/ Peter King of NY, who says he wonders if the party is crumbling on the whole


the reasonable, centrist Republican take on Cantor's loss
Yes, but in a double utley you can put your utley on top they other guy's utley, and you're the winner. (Swish)
