From the Huffington Post Thursday,

Rush Limbaugh continues to put the Republican Party’s leaders in very awkward situations with his controversial, often explosive, remarks. Only a week ago Republican Rep.

“Mr. Cantor, after Rush’s website antics today and comments yesterday, do you really still think you ‘need’ Limbaugh?” his statement read.

The question wasn’t immediately answered, with Cantor currently traveling in Israel. But Harris’ statement got to a larger point: to what extent should the GOP — and, in particular, its Jewish members — be held accountable for the recent bout of Obama-Nazi comparisons?

How will Cantor react now?
