Cantor paid that price because of it, he was listening to the president instead of the people he served.

So people shouldn't hear the truth? While I think many voters from both sides of the spectrum have specific things they feel strongly about and will not budge on, most people seem pretty reasonable and I think they would rather see the country do well.
Congress has about a 10% approval rating. It isn't like the people are out there saying, "That congress is just doing everything they can to help the country, but that bastard Obama is stopping them at ever turn." The people know the congress is filled with assholes and I don't think their feelings are getting hurt too bad nor or they shocked when the president reminds them that their elected officials are refusing to work with him.
