VA: Powell vs. Eric Cantor debate. Eric Cantor came off as sneering and condescending

He blew off the service of Powell, just by acknowledging that Powell served, then didn't acknowledge that Powell's son was serving.

Cantor is the epitome of the sneering, condescending politician that has been in Washington for too long. I didn't watch because I am a resident of Virginia, I watched because I wanted to see how the citizens of Virginia reacted. They don't seem to like Cantor very much these days, and if they kick him out of office for Powell, I would have faith in Powell running nationally.

Cantor was born sneering and condescending. He is by far the creepiest of all the republicans and that is a hell of a competition with people like Boner, Ryan, Bachmann, West, Akin and Issa in the running.

Of all the GOP candidates, NOTHING would give me more pleasure than to see Cantor go down in flames.
