Are there any politicians that just seem like eternal rivals? This came from the thought that Guinta and Shea-Porter will very possibly be continually duking it out for years to come.

Baron Hill and Mike Sodrel were rivals for years, it was even rumored that Hill hit Sodrel.

The Huntsman and Romney families hate each other, actually. And at least Huntsman Senior hates Senator Mike Lee.

And former Salt Lake City Mayor Rocky Anderson hates all conservatives with a boiling personal passion, except for Mitt Romney, since he worked with Romney during the Olympics.

If I recall correctly, there's one GOP pol that John McCain hates for questioning his military service or something, I don't remember who it is right now though.

Isn't Huntsman Senior also buddies with Harry Reid? There was that whole thing about how Huntsman, Sr. was the one who tipped him off about Romney's tax returns in 2012.

As for the original question... I'm sure McConnell (and a lot of Senate Republicans) and Cruz loathe each other.

Virginian Politicians:

Bob McDonnell/Bill Bolling vs. Ken Cuccinelli

Not a lot of people liked Eric Cantor too, and from what I've heard, Boehner was not fond of him.

What about Linda Lingle and Mazie Hirono in Hawaii? They've faced off in two different statewide elections.

And weren't Harry Reid and John Ensign rivals at one point?

I'd say that the Huntsman/Reid relationship was more Huntsman Senior deciding who could do the most damage to Romney with the tax return issue, then any actual fondness for Reid. Plus Harry Reid does not have a lot of non-Nevadan Mormon friends.

To be nemeses both parties need to be worried about the other.  Who was ever worried about Lyndon LaRouche?
