Mark Levin, one of two conservative talk radio hosts who fought for David Brat in his insurgent campaign against Majority Leader Eric Cantor, began another campaign of sorts Wednesday evening, this time against Kevin McCarthy, the California Republican considered likely to replace Cantor as the party’s Majority Leader.

“Apparently the leadership isn’t getting the message,” said Levin, who along with talk show how Laura Ingraham, was a notable backer of Brat’s campaign. “We want a constitutional conservative in the leadership, not just the next guy in line. . . ,” he said, referring to reports that McCarthy, now the number three in leadership, was considered likely to replace Cantor in the majority leader post. “They all sound alike, they look alike almost,” Levin said referring to the GOP House leadership team. “I don’t think they have learned a damned thing.”

Just before making his argument Wednesday evening, Levin interviewed Brat on his syndicated “The Mark Levin Show.” Brat described his come-from-behind campaign — and went out of his way to thank Levin for his early support. Levin called Brat “smarter than Boehner and McCarthy combined.”

He also dubbed the two leaders “the same,” as Cantor. “They are the same crony capitalists, the same Chamber of Commerce, the same K Street. The same Mr. Amnesty,” he said.
