Very disappointing — the worst news I’ve read all day. I met Rigell in 1998 and he’d seemed like such a stand-up guy — he started up Freedom Ford in the Hampton Roads, VA area in the mid-1990s, putting a lot of revenue into the region and creating jobs.
Right after the 9-11 terror attacks he put out some really inspiring radio PR spots, urging listeners to pull together, support our national government and military, and defeat the terrorists.
So, I’m not getting this... did he somehow think electing 0bama was going to help his business??? I can almost wrap my mind around it if it were only in the Dem primary and he was hard-driven to NOT see Hillary get the nomination. But to throw $ to Mark Warner, and that uber-lib shrew Louise Lucas?? Inexcusable!
I WAS going to contribute to his campaign.. but now... hell no!!
If he plays identity politics and also fell for Obama’s BS, then he has no business being a Republican candidate. He can run for dogcatcher.
