Yet, I'm seeing people on the left saying that this is a bad thing. The number 2, and I do mean number 2, guy in the GOP leadership just got knocked off by somebody even crazier than Cantor and in their own party. The GOP is in crisis mode right now, you can bet that the lights are still on at GOP party headquarters. They didn't see this coming.
