From the comments to this Reason article on Eric Cantor vs David Brat.
from Brat’s c.v.:
“An Analysis of the Moral Foundations in Ayn Rand” by Katy Holland and David Brat, presented and published in the proceedings of Southeast Informs, Myrtle Beach, SC, October 6, 2010

Note: Cantor spent $5.4 million on his campaign. Brat spent $200,000. I blame money in politics. In any case it looks like we will have another vote for ending prohibition in the next Congress.
Cantor on Drugs. NORML rates him at -20 i.e. staunch prohibitionist.

“Your fixation on the drug issue is getting worse.”
Calling an opinion on a major issue a “fixation” which is “getting worse” in no way rebuts that opinion. It is simply condescending and rude, and the failure to present any rebutting argument on the merits speaks for itself.
