Representative Eric Cantor, the House majority leader who lost the primary election yesterday, spent over $168,000 on steakhouses alone during his campaign (at Bobby Van's and BLT Steak). By comparison, his Tea Party-backed opponent David Brat only spent $200,000 on his campaign in total. Oops. [NYT, Vox][Photo: Shutterstock]
