Sounds like a reasonable plan.
I am with Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli, and not the DEMS. People need more choices not less. To eliminate opponents before the vote is a trade mark of the Devil and Obama.
The Governor is about to crap his pants.
In other news: Rombots go into panic mode in Virginia.
The jig is up.
I have had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Cuccinelli when he was running for Attorney General and discussing several things with him. I worked for his campaign and supported him financially as well. I also look forward to voting for him when he runs for Governor.
Common sense prevails. This might help Perry, Gingrich, and Santorum. I don’t think that it will make a difference with Bachmann or Huntsman, who are probably out of it anyway.
While we are talking about qualifying, we need to refute the meme that is circulating about Santorum not qualifying for dozens of ballots. The ones most often mentioned are Ohio, Tennessee, and Virginia. Ohio’s official deadline isn’t until March. (Today’s Ohio “deadline” is a recommended deadline only.) Santorum is already on the ballot in Tennessee. It looks like, given the proposed new guidelines, that he will be on the ballot in Virginia, too.
Simple. Just put all candidates registered with the National Party on the ballot. Done.
You mean to say this development means there is still some FIGHT left somewhere, in at least one state? You mean, conservatives are NOT going to roll over for Romney, at least in Virginia?
Does this mean that there is, actually, a Sleeping Giant left out there, one little band, who is willing to rouse against boarding the trains?
Hurrrahhhhhh!!!
I can hear the pitter-patter of RATs running to file injunctions and lawsuits against this already...
This is “emergency” legislation and needs Dem support to get 2/3 votes in each chamber.
Emergency legislation goes into effect upon the Gov’s signature, “normal” legislation July 1 (IIRC).
Looks like they’ll go along.
Of course, the media is looking at big campaign advertising money and would have to punish them if they didn’t...
Mittens, Rupaul and the pubbie elite are very sad.
The AG is a good man.
Good!
Forget the lawsuits and public outcry, it’s my tag that’s having the effect here...
Great news! Cuccinelli sounds like a good guy. He has sued the Feds over Obamacare, he has defended the Arizon law allowing police to check for illegals during a stop, he was against VA schools adding gays and lesbians to “protected classes” for college admission, he has challenged the EPA over global warming.
Maybe he should be running for president. I’d vote for him.
They’re just really lucky Ron Paul qualified, otherwise I think Romney would have automatically been declared the winner without a vote just as Obama as the only person on the Democrat ballot is. In that case Romney might have had a strong legal challenge countering any changes now. Of course, for PR purposes he might not have wanted to pursue that.
IF you'd rather NOT be pinged FReepmail me.
IF you'd like to be added FReepmail me. Thanks.
It was the FEW that changed the rules in November.
What goes on in Va., DOES effect the whole of the American voters. VA., is not, nor should be a major deciding factor in electing a candidate based on only TWO people on the ballot, when there are others to be considered.
Next time somewhere, sometime, it could be your man/woman who was left out because of some insider shenanigans. Think about it.
Way to go Ken!!
In other news, Virginia RATs and RINOs collectively soiled themselves today.
This is great news!
