SHOCK poll: Eric Cantor (R) in primary trouble !?

[🐒Gods of Prosperity🔱🐲💸]

Judge Smith and Willis Robertson lost in '66 when the Organization imploded. Apparently last time a House Majority Leader lost was ... 1899.

The House Majority Leader office was established in 1899. Before that it was the Ways and Means Chair that filled the role. So this is the first time.

So apparently Brat's campaign manager is...well...read for yourselves

He also has some pretty unorthodox economic views, especially for someone who is...err...an economics professor:

I don't know if it is unorthodox for an economics professor, but it's clearly inspired by the work of Max Weber.

It's honestly the sort of argument I'd expect from the sociologist in this race, not the economist. I don't mean that in a disparaging way at all--I have a higher opinion of sociology than of economics as an academic discipline, overall--but it's just not the sort of theory I'd expect to see come from an economics department.

It is coming from a theological seminary in this case

Randolph Macon College has a good religious studies program and is institutionally affiliated with the United Methodist Church, but it is not a theological seminary - it's a liberal arts college. When I visited there as a prospective student I got the impression of a beautiful campus with great professors, and students who were world-class experts in the consumption of booze.  There isn't generally a strong religious emphasis unless you seek it out.
