Eric Cantor lays out 22-page game plan

Nice photograph of him, with Speaker-designate John Boehner.

Quote
Virginia Republican Eric Cantor’s official announcement of his run for House majority leader came with a twist: a 22-page game plan on how to change Congress.

Cantor, currently the GOP whip, began calling colleagues to shore up his support and wrote a letter promising to change Congress – saying he wants to “drain the swamp rather than learning to swim with the alligators.”

The document is entitled “Delivering on Our Commitment” and promises a broad range of sweeping initiatives ranging from spending cuts to to bringing each item of the Pledge to America to the floor for a vote. It’s a bold plan that shows Cantor wants to be taken as a serious House reformer and policy leader as he ascends to the no. 2 slot in the new GOP hierarchy.....

I was on another site where people were suggesting Cantor for a presidential run in 2012.  I don't know much about him.  Would that be a good idea?

I'm pretty impressed with him from what little I know.  I'd almost rather see him be the Speaker than Boehner.  The media is going to make Boehner (or any new Republican Speaker) into Gingrich all over again.

Eric Cantor seems to be "one of the good ones" as well.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle
