The big news this week is Eric Cantor's epic defeat. We are now going to see the Greedy Oil Party get even more insane in its panic to please the teabaggers. Now there is not one single Jewish Republican in Congress. For my part I will be watching to see if this gives Democrats any chance to pick up VA-7. It is a longshot, but not impossible given the magnitude of the upset in the Repub primary. No matter what, NOW is a good time to join in the dKos effort to make this seat competitive.

And here is a good summary of what happened to Cantor.
Below is a roundup of news, politics science, and humor. I plan on doing this about once a week as long as people seem interested. I hope you enjoy.
But first, elections are 6 months away. We all know it's going to be close, though Dems are starting to poll better. If we want the next 2 years to be anything CLOSE to progressive, we need to focus now on winning in November.
