And then there was this...
Cuccinelli shuns Cruz limelight
he sure didn't do himself any favors in snubbing Cruz.
Virginia is lost.
If things are as you say, then Virginia will get the government it deserves.
I am probably the dies-hardest Cruz die-hard, but in some areas like around DC with gubmit workers, Cruz may not be well accepted........ yet.
That is not true. Where are you getting your information?
Virginia is lost.
Ken is fighting an uphill battle in a purple state turning blue. The rapidly changing demographics of NoVA have given the Dems the decided edge in statewide elections. In 2009, the turnout of Dems in NoVA was at historic lows. That is not going to happen this time.
And the current LT Governor, Bill Bolling, is miffed that he wasn't the nominee. Bolling stepped aside in 2009 to allow Bob McDonnell to run with the understanding that McDonnell would support him in 2013. Bolling is pissed at Ken and so are a number of prominent VA RINOs. Adding to that problem is the McDonnell scandal on gifts from donors.
This will be a turnout election. Ken is a great grassroots candidate who must break even as much as possible in NoVA to have a chance. And Ken must get a big turnout from the rest of the state. Ken's chances of winning are slim, but he still has a chance. Every FReeper in VA should get to the polls to support a real conservative.
he sure didn't do himself any favors in snubbing Cruz.
Personally, I thought it was a bad move, but for many Cruz has become a lightning rod. No doubt Ken believes that he should steer clear of Cruz lest he motivate NoVA voters even more. McAwful has been running ads against Ken associating him with Cruz. Obviously, McAwful's advisers believe this is a good strategy.
Absolfrickingutely! The only chance Virginia has is the Republican legislature. Let’s hope events turn out better in Richmond than in Washington.
