That’s a bit of a surprise!
5.56mm
But IF (and that's a BIG IF) it's true, then sour grapes Bill Bolling is yet another GOP-E hack and former "key man" for the Romney campaign.
Moreover, there's THIS:
McAuliffe and Bolling meet in Richmond
McAuliffe, Bolling Trading Calls in Run-Up to Bolling's Decision
McAuliffe, Bolling buddy up at VA Free luncheon
Bolling defends McAuliffe over GreenTech's Mississippi move
Smells like dirty tricks to me. Bolling was ticked off that Cuccinelli got the GOP nomination for governor instead of him, and is capable of doing and saying anything out of a sense of vindictive payback.
This story has been going around for about a week
Because important news like this is always broken by a video-blogger. Pfft.
Per http://jhpolitics.com/2013/07/virginia-denials-pour-in-over-mcdonnell-resignation-report/
THIS IS NOT TRUE!!!!!!!!!!!!! He is NOT going to resign.
Reminds me of the Johnny Carson movie I watched this week where a member of Jay Leno’s team placed a news article in the paper saying Leno was going to take over the Tonight show. It was not true but it did start the ball rolling for Carson to leave.
I presume it is “dirty tricks”, but that McDonnell also gave them the opening with stupid ethical lapses.
Could this be the reason why he is behind the idea of restoring voting rights for felons?
It has been going on for the last year.
Yes, but it has resurfaced recently in the past week.
This is “Macaca”.
Bearing Drift is the actual source of the original story. They are a conservative site. It may turn out to be untrue, but I doubt McAulliff and Clinton are involved. And just because the McDonnell side is currently denying it doesn’t mean it is so either.
Right you are!
I’m still calling BS!
This is such bunk.
And, to the north, serial cyber-flasher Anthony (LookAtMeee!) Weiner is leading in the upcoming race for NYC Mayor, while Eliot Spitzer dips his toe back in the water.
I have been reading about it about every week for the last year.
Well if it’s true, another GOPe bites the dust....
Really disappointed in him as I had such high hopes in the beginning.
Should have known when he turned down my kid for a job and gave it to the kid whose parents donated more money to the campaign...meh.
Weiner and Spitzer weren’t caught accepting gifts from contractors and, as far as I know, aren’t under suspicion of contract fraud. What McDonnell is being accused of is much more serious. If you want to keep the carpetbagger Clinton crony out of office, we need to throw this piece of scum under the bus and distance ourselves now. Defending him isn’t going to do any good other than drag this out through the election.
