I always thought the reason the Portillo moment existed was because he was so hated by the left-leaning public; probably only in a similar way with say Michael Gove when he was education Secretary.

Portillo was not just the poster-boy for Thatcherism; but seemed to have the smaryness and arrogance that went along with Thatcherism in the 1980s

Eric Cantor in 2014, for sure, is one.
Mark Udall in 2014 and George Allen in 2006 also qualify, imo
kander in 2016 prehaps?

If you're referring to Jason Kander him losing was not at all a Portillo moment.
