You can't fault the Tea Party, they are more politically active than most citizens. All US voters should be like them, regardless of ideology. Congress is supposed to work for us, if they don't vote the way their constituents want them to, we should oust them.

Yeah, but Cantor voted almost exactly as they wanted him to, and was as effective as McConnell is standing up to the Obama agenda. This is pure nihilism.

We gain from debate and compromise.

Cantor routinely blocked Boehner from debate and compromise, though.

A lot of Democrats crossed over to vote cantor out.

There's no evidence for that... someone posted a map with a regression showing # of past Dem votes with # of Brat votes and there's no relationship.
