Ken Cuccinelli, Republicans dominate D.C. coal rally
Politico ^ | 10/30/13 | Erica Martinson

Virginia gubernatorial candidate Ken Cuccinelli joined other top Republicans in taking to the Capitol on Tuesday with thousands of other critics of the Obama administration’s so-called war on coal.

Cuccinelli, trailing in the polls just a week before Virginia voters cast ballots, was one of a host of politicians to make appearances at the rally, which was timed to coincide with a day of pro-coal, anti-regulation hearings inside the Capitol. Other speakers included Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) and Rep. Nick Rahall (D-W.Va.), both facing potentially tough reelection fights in 2014.

What do we think? Good use of vital campaign time? I’m guessing a lot of Virginians will be in attendance.

To all UMW coal workers:
THIS IS WHAT YOU VOTED FOR, MORONS....

Did you think Obama and the Dems were just kidding when they said they would kill coal in America?

I think it’s a good use of his time because word will spread in Virginia Coal Country that Cuccinelli’s their guy. We need that part of the state to turn out en masse.

Exactly!....99% democrat voters complaining that the policies they voted for aren’t working out for them. You woke up 5 years (at least) too late.

when I read a QU poll had Ken behind by 4 pts .
If QU has him behind by 4 pts then he is ahead .
QU has Rick Scott behind by 4 pts he won by 1 pt on election day.

All the Dems racing to VA means they are behind now.

I wondered about that, too. It seems like a Q poll would be biased favoring the Dems.

I was raised in the coal business and witnessed the beginning of the war on coal in 1970. What you are witnessing now with Obozocare is just the latest salvo in the Lefts war on the middle class.

Years ago I thought that when enough people had their ox gored that Americans would raise up and stop these loons. But I see that I was wrong.

America as we have known it is a dead man walking.
