From the WaPo, this bit from their Health 202:

OOF: Eric Cantor, the former House majority leader who was ousted in 2014, admits he never believed Republicans would follow through on their many promises to repeal Obamacare, in a candid interview with the Washingtonian. Cantor played a huge role in driving Obamacare repeal as a core GOP message in the years just after the health-care law was enacted. Asked whether he feels partly responsible for his party's current predicament, Cantor responded "Oh, 100 percent."

“To give the impression that if Republicans were in control of the House and Senate, that we could do that when Obama was still in office . . . .” Cantor said, shaking his head. “I never believed it.”

Cantor also said he wasn’t the only one aware of the charade. “We sort of all got what was going on, that there was this disconnect in terms of communication, because no one wanted to take the time out in the general public to even think about ‘Wait a minute—that can’t happen,'" Cantor said. But he added this: “If you’ve got that anger working for you, you’re gonna let it be.”

And, would the LA Times give a similar platform to a B-list republican to write an op-ed about how Elizabeth Warren has always been a fraud?

 

I thought the height of his "Oh that is rich" comments was yesterday when YF scoffed when someone brought up the names Bush and Cheney.
