Chris Frates On Power, People And Influence From Capitol Hill To K Street

Where's Eric Cantor?

The Republican House Majority Leader is 160 miles offshore visiting an oil drilling platform in the Gulf of Mexico, according to Cantor senior policy advisor @MikeFerence's twitter feed. (More details on the trip after the jump.)

No word from Cantorworld about whether the majority leader, a prodigious fundraiser, managed to squeeze any donor events into his swing down south. But if anyone could figure out how do hold a fundraiser on an oil rig, it'd be Cantor.
