OVERWHELMING greeting for Powell from audience, after cantor's 'moderate' applause. And this is an audience invited by Chamber of Commerce, largely business community.
Cantor brags about agreement 'we' came up with, and of course doesn't mention he failed to see it to be implemented.
Cantor lieing about 'sequester' process, of course.

(12,272 posts)Cantor is unbelievable, and seriously, debating these pathological liars is an uphill, slippery, climb. I am going to send him a foot-hold (donation) for support after I post this.

(8,434 posts)At least we can INCLUDE them.
He said it will take a while AND will add MANY jobs.
Eric Cantor sounds like a whiny ass. He annoys me with everything he snivels about. He's like Severous Snape without the moral compass, and with double the lies.
I can't believe Powell can put up with this idiot's lies. He's a better man than I am.

(39,961 posts)He made Eric Cantor sound like exactly what he is - a feeling free reptile that focuses on numbers, not people.

Again.
That dude couldn't focus on anything but how it benefits him and big money if he had to do so. He probably asks his wife when their child is sick if they can hold off bringing him to the doctor because it might not have the right optics for Cantor to be using his insurance.

Oh yeah Fuck Cantor.

(130,908 posts)Powell needs some straps to hold his hands down imo, but at the same time it accentuates his passion to fixing our problems.
He did an AWESOME job though. It was rigged for Cantor, but Powell still stomped him!
elleng
(130,908 posts)Could be wrong, tho, 'cause basically listening to Wayne Powell!!!
The mod did keep it pretty even. I guess I mean the audience. It was a rigged game from that standpoint, but I don't think that even worked in Cantors favor.
It's more PROOF that this is a winnable election.
