I’m sure the “Libertarian” candidate is getting mucho DemWit $$$, as without him McAwful most likely cannot prevail.

Rand Paul needs to keep up the support for Cuccinelli here. Sure, Libertarians won't agree with everything Ken believes, but McAuliffe is an all-out statist train wreck.
(btw, leftist Rachel Maddow is trying to distract Virginians from Paul's message by running "plagiarism" claims. Yes, that would be the same Rachel Maddow that supported plagiarist Barack Obama and fellow plagiarist Joe Biden....)
It's a new democrat tactic, they successfully used it in several house elections in 2012. They run a third party candidate claiming to be libertarian or tea party, with enough funding to make some waves and get some exposure (funded by a Soros front group posing as Libertarian/Tea Party.) The candidate then peals 5%-7% percent from the Republican which, unless the race is blowout, ensures a democrat win.
A FReeper posted the other day that most of Sarvis $$ is coming from Dim operatives. I guess this could be verified on OpenSecrets, etc. I don’t doubt it, though.
I said this on a similar thread last night:
There have been a lot of recent elections where a 3rd party "Libertarian" siphoned votes from Republicans, and unlikely democRATs were elected. Something is going on... I don't believe all of these Libertarians are for real.
The 2012 Mia Love (R) Congressional race in Utah is a prime example. In conservative Utah, Mia should have trounced her democRAT opponent. Some stupid "Libertarian" got in the way, which created a 3-way race, and now the democRAT holds that seat.
