Sounds like some of the GOP are going to make common cause against conservatives against Cuccinelli and Bowling. The Northern Virginia statists will be overjoyed if that happens.

If any republican doesn’t like what this man is saying, they need to rethink their own bias because he’s only outspoken of telling the truth. The truth can be harsh to hear in this so so politically correct world. Look how some in the establishment do not want the average republicans to use the term illegal for illegals immigrants. Kinda like Obama not wanting to say global terrorism or terror in general. They each have a connection; the weak repubs/the weak dems. Why even have 2 parties/with this we see here. What is occurring is cowardly in attacking him. More black babies are being aborted at abortion places than any other race. Why don’t the liberal population begin screaming about those little kids being murdered instead of making others think this candidate is over stepping in his views. Gop, time to stand up or show your own bias.

He is great. Always enjoy hearing his speeches.

The GOP establishment tools like Bill Bolling (One of McDonnel’s sycophants) dislike him, not because he’s black, but because he’s conservative! He’s a threat to their hegemony, a threat to the class of McLame nobles, the Linseed lemmings.

Tokyo Rove and co. want a more diverse GOP, and seek to achieve it through bribing minorities with the same crap that rats offer, a utopia of zero responsibility. They don’t seek to make it more diverse by bringing the message of conservatism to those on the bottom rungs of our society, who suffer in Democrat-drawn ghettos.

I despise the establishment. They lose touch with the base more and more each cycle, content to keep the status quo of Castles, Bennetts, Dewhursts, and Lugars. They are happy to rake in their millions from gullible donors, while spitting on the voters, the average joes, the small business owners and the God-fearing patriots.

E.W. Jackson has my full support, not only so that these squishy moderate losers get a kick in the face, but so that Virginia will have a Lt. Governor who actually gives a damn about the state and the country, and what we’ll leave behind for the next generation we’re busy robbing.

Hmmm...it's beginning to sound like only certain *types* of black folks are welcome in Virginia,home of some of the wealthiest and most “progressive” of this nation's suburbs.

I watched the new MSNBC video. Unbelievable how stupid, ignorant, or dishonest that group was. There was no one that even offered an opposing view.

The ignorant or dishonest black woman had no clue about the past history of abortion. She pretended to be an expert on the subject but my guess is she’s never even heard of the “negro project.”

No wonder no one watches that network.

I doubt the GOPe is squirming because E.W. Jackson is a Black Conservative.
I think the problem lies in the the fact he is a CONSERVATIVE.
But I could be wrong. The Democrats have said for Republicans were racist for decades. Maybe they are correct. I would never accuse them of being Right.

I am pleased to see Bishop Jackson got the nod. It will a nice change to NOT have to hold my nose while voting for the Republican ticket. As for the mis-informed hereabouts...I used to get theraputic massage for my roached back. An RN came highly recommended, she was also black. When I happened to remark about the shortcomings of then candidate John Effing Kerry, she got very upset, and said “If it wasn’t for Democrats, I wouldn’t have the vote!”
I tried to explain it was BECAUSE of Democrats you couldn’t vote. My words fell on deaf ears...

In a state that has gone for Obama the last two elections. I don't hold out a lot of hope for his future in electoral politics.

They’ll do the same to him as they did to Herman Cain.

Now Republicans have somehow concluded that their party’s woes are because it once stood for something. So the game plan is to morph into the Democrats’ stepsister.

DING! DING! DING!! Here's the money line!!

The GOP does not have a problem with Blacks, its the Conservative part that sets their teeth on edge.

E.W. Jackson is great. I was there at the convention as a delegate as was my wife. E.W. gave the best speech of all the convention Lt Gov candidates. I didn’t go into the convention supporting him but on the second round I switched and supported him through the 3 remaining rounds of votes. I did see on twitter where some were starting to play games against Jackson but it seems to have evaporated. E.W. is not an empty suit. He was a marine, graduated from Harvard Business School and practiced law for 15 years. My take is if E.W. Jackson isn’t good enough for the Republican Party then the Republican party has bigger problems than Democrats.

I don’t see the issue. Ken Cuccinelli and Mark Obenshain both are just as conservative as E.W. Jackson though they are not as outspoken but is that the place where we want to be where its ok only to be conservative with tight lips, passionateless and cold? That approach will never win blacks/minorities nor will it win young people. Low information voters need to be given something to believe in. A phrase that sticks in their head a sense in their gut that someone is worth supporting. If it were just a case of reasoning the GOP would never lose but the problem the GOP faces is one of mundacity. How are we to expect people to want to join our ranks if our leaders appear to be scared of their own shadows unable to stand publicly for what they believe without stammering?

E.W. is a great guy and if I were Ken Cuccinelli I’d be using E.W. as a strength.

“I became a Republican because of what the party stood for... Individual freedom, traditional values, with a view that government’s role is to protect our freedom at home and abroad.”

It’s so refreshing to read the writing of someone who gets it, even (or perhaps especially) if it IS becoming increasingly rare.

The GOP hatred of conservatives is colorblind.
