national politics for a college economics professor who has never held office. he teaches at randolph macon college, the same school where his democratic opponent is on the faculty. he will face jack trammel in the fall election. his fundraising was dwarfed by eric cantor's. the that's about the same amount the campaign spent in steak houses according to "the new york times." what may have helped most was cantor himself whose disconnect led to his downfall. >> i honestly wasn't very impressed. a little too extremist. >> that's kind of a lose-lose situation. >> i'm happy that cantor lost, but not sure how happy about the guy who won. >> some of the students have already weighed in. on a website, he was rated with a glowing red chili pepper for good looks, one even called him eye candy.
