Webb is a whack job from way back.
He seems to have enough of the Bubba factor to convince many of the Blue Dog Democrats that he is a regular guy. Don’t you love the way he “evolved” on gay marriage. I have noticed how a couple of Massachusetts representatives had taken the pledge to support abortion and gay “rights”. This puzzled me until I realized that the feminists/Planned Parenthood and the gays were no doubt requiring all candidates to take an oath to them, sort of like joining the Mafia. They take this public oath when taking office but they don’t usually speak about these very controversial issues to the public after that. It sort of like “What happens in Washington stays in Washington”. They have one face in Washington and a nicer face when they come back home. By taking their oath at the beginning of their term, they know that it will be many months till the next election and people will have forgotten about their pledge to the dark side. Politicians are so devious.
