Bolling is your classic sour grapes RINO who was Virginia state Chairman for the Romney campaign and expected to succeed Governor Bob McDonell after the 2013 election. However, the Virginia TEA party groups overwhelmingly backed Conservative Ken Cuccinelli and Bolling suspended his campaign in November. Now, he's threatening to run as an Independent out of spite, split the vote, and help Clinton crony Terry McAuliffe waltz into the governor's mansion rather than helping Cuccinelli win.

It's another case of RINO's demanding that Conservatives fall into line whenever they win Republican nominations but absolutely refusing to do so themselves when the shoe is suddenly on the other foot.

Gearing up to run as an independent so he can spoil Cuccinelli’s chances.

Yes, that's right - the media thinks the GOP has 'shifted to the right' and has become 'extreme'.

They do not perceive nor are they worried in the least that the democrat party has gone to the far left.

Never mind the past words and associations of leftist politicians like Obama. Never mind the gaping gulf between the rhetoric they use to win office and their actions once safely inside.

The leftist MSM is koo-koo. There is no reasoning with the delusional.

THe GOP that “shifted to the right” in Virginia is about to approve a huge tax increase, going along with the democrats to grow government to solve a “transportation crisis”.

And btw, Bolling was polling much below Cuccinelli in a primary as well, he wouldn’t have won a primary. I still wish we were HAVING a primary, because then when Bill lost, he’d be unlikely to be able to turn around in time to launch a campaign to get democrats elected.

Well. he’s got a good chance- Cooh is hated by the left and waht’s his name is hated by anyone with a brain.
The Romney campaign is in place to back him with volunteers and money.

The huge downside is it will end his chance to ever run as a Republican again. If MacDonell is going against Warner maybe he doesn’t see anything to lose then.

I don’t think he will. Heck, he’s calling for a gas tax increase! That worked ‘great’ for Deed’s campaign...

This is the same old VA GOP politics. Warner never supported Ollie North and got a candidate to run as an independent so Ollie would lose. These ‘Sour Grapes’ one-way Pubbies are all over the Old Dominion, sorry to say ...

I detest leftist, mushy Republicans even more than I do hard core Dhimms. At least the Dhimms are upfront about trashing capitalism. The pseudo-cons just want to do it more gradually and steer influence to their buddies, rather than the buddies of the limousine marxists.
