Cantor: If Election Were Today, GOP Would Take Back House Majority
By
As Democrats struggle with health care reform and conservative energy has swelled, some have speculated the party's national political dominance could be slipping. House Minority Whip Eric Cantor is among them.
After his speech at the Family Research Council's Values Voter Summit in Washington, DC, I asked Cantor whether he agreed with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's statement in a fundraising email yesterday that Democrats will face their toughest midterm elections ever in November 2010.
He sees the GOP's advantage as more immediate.
"I absolutely think it's gonna be tough for them. I think if the election were held today, we would have the majority of the House back, and I think that that is reflecting the American public's dissatisfaction with Speaker Pelosi's agenda," Cantor said.
