Didn’t McAuliffe leave his wife at the hospital to give birth while he drove off to attend a fundraiser? I wonder if she caught a cab home.

Ironically, E W Jackson is the only black person the Virginian Pilot could find voting today. See for yourself:

While this might be considered a “head in the sand” comment

Not at all. I'm just putting the info out there. I trust your discernment. As far as I'm concerned, every newspaper that is not named the 'Washington Times' is a liberal rag.

The supposed high turn out is making me nervous if the conventional wisdom says low turn out favors our side...
But heck, those same people said NO prez could be reelected with 8% unemployment, lousy approval ratings, gas at $3/gallon, blah blah blah...

Can’t STAND that paper and tell them every time they hit me up to subscribe. They have also messed big time with our town politics which has really pi**ed me off.
We get the Sunday Pilot at a 7/11 - the coupons pay for it and I work the cross words...meh.

Meanwhile, Ron and Carolyn Coles said they felt too much had been made of the healthcare law’s early missteps. “Bad-mouthing the healthcare plan doesn’t help,” Ron Coles said. “The healthcare plan will make or break its own self. If you don’t have any healthcare, that’s a bad plan. If you have a chance to get healthcare, then it’s a good plan.” The couple also said they supported abortion-rights candidates, noting that Cuccinelli’s opposition to abortion even in cases of incest and rape seemed too extreme.

Some people are just too damned stupid to be allowed anywhere near a polling place!

Thanks for that and no insult to the bearer intended...
Just interesting that a “live blog” would be so tilted...or maybe it’s true.

I'm not that worried...lately I find that there's less and less wisdom in the conventional wisdom.

You know that crook McAwful is worth over 10 million dollars.
Most of it got from illegal kickbacks from Unions when he ran the DNC. Big time Clinton cronie from way back. And, he flatly refuses to disclose ANY of his income tax returns.

It’s ironic that my own kids are low-information voters. And my daughter sang at the House Impeachment Rally when she was 4. She and Alan Keyes did a duet.

Kill me.

Missteps. Having stage 4 cancer patients thrown out in the cold without insurance is a ‘misstep’! GRRRRRRR!

If my kids turned out liberal, in this day and age, I’d put them out on their asses.

You can’t send your kids to a public school system designed to indoctrinate them and then get angry when they wind up indoctrinated.

Yet killing babies for the sake of convenience is not too extreme.
