“We need to look ourselves in the Mirror and ask “Why I am a Republican” because it certainly shouldn’t be to support the get along gang.”

Well, I’m not a republican. Never have been. Probably never will be. So I guess I get a pass on that one? I’m an independent ANTI-partisan. I view the political parties, including most of the third parties, as more or less equally worthless.

Never liked the term “RINO.” To me they’re RINWADS: Republican In Name, Word, and Deed.

I respectfully disagree. Yes. The GOPe may have aided in a defeat of a Tea Party backed candidate. They did little harm to the philosophy or movement of the Tea Party. In fact, our newfound enemies have exposed themselves for what they are... statists without conviction. May they burn in hell. I am emboldened; and not the least bit discouraged by the results. Drink up my friends for their is tomorrow.

“How do people vote statewide for Rep. Atty. Gen. but not Gov? Something just doesn’t seem right?”

Part of it might be that Cuccinelli got tangled up with the company that bribed the sitting governor. That, coupled with Cuccinelli’s longstanding refusal to denounce the governor after he got caught might well have turned off just enough people.

Meanwhile Christie and MSM celebrate his win. I don’t feel the joy, sorry folks.

MSM loves Christie now, like they did McCain over the years, but only until he was the Republican nominee

So Christie you got that to look forward to if you ever win the nomination (God forbid)

If that ever happens, you then will be to fat and to extream

We have to destroy the Republican Party in order to save it

No when your enemy is destroying himself, stand back, don't get in da way of da fool.

Give them a few more goes without us, they are so screwed and don't even know it..

There's not a single woman in Virginia who wanted an abortion who didn't get one and probably got someone else to pay for it the last four years with a pro-life GOP administration in Richmond. Their fears are unfounded. I can't believe these women are so easily duped.

Fox was correct. Most of the precincts that were outstanding were democrat precincts. Good grief. And even if they were early...so what? McA did win so how can you dump on Fox...all the polls were closed - everyone had voted - only the counting of some precincts were left. Their calling the race when they did, did not change one vote, so why the vomit?

“We ain’t digging up 20k votes now, but it wasn’t over when it was called. Fox is lame!”

Faux sucks. The Tokyo rove network.

Some of you people here are the biggest political retards I have ever seen in my life. Let’s recap: Cuc had three strikes going into this - 1) Outspent by at leat 2 to 1, 2) Faux libertarian plant put into the race by the Dems to suck votes and 3) No help from the GOPe.

All that and he lost by about a percent and half after being down double digits two weeks ago. I can guarantee you the Dems are crapping their pants.

Irrational hysteria, of course. I apologize to Fox. But they could’ve held off on the rush to be first.

I don’t know why everyone else is dumping on Fox for calling it but I’m personally sick of their projections. Up until the last votes are counted, no one has won.

Let them count the votes and let’s have a real election

Ewww, thanks for update. I stopped paying attention. If I wake up and Obenshain lost after all I’ll be irritated.

Cuccinelli ran a horrible race. He was disorganized, had no ground game, and responded defensively to every sling. He was doomed the second he started complaining about negative advertising. That he came this close speaks volumes for what the TEA party can do when it puts its mind to it.
