nice astroturf troll peddling Rhino propaganda here Vile Former Lt Gov Bollings the Rhino who lost the nomination to Ken actively pressed gop donors and activist to support Mcawful ! Bollings told a major Gop Pac to not support Ken and send money and support to Mcawful.

Did Cuccinelli have enemies? Sure. Is he unique in having intra-party enemies who cross over to the other side? No.

But did Cuccinelli spend nearly as much time fundraising as McDonnell? The Cuccinelli campaign guy interviewed says no. Even the third party candidacy isn't particularly unique. John Anderson, a liberal Republican, ran against Reagan in 1980. Ultimately, Cuccinelli can make all the excuses he wants, but the reality is that VA GOP legislators mostly won their seats back. VA did not reject the GOP. It rejected him. It's not any single factor, but a combo of everything working against him, ranging from (1) his past statements opposing the incest and rape exception for abortions, (2) his lackadaisical fund-raising, (3) the Libertarian Party candidate, (4) McAuliffe's fund-raising prowess, (5) McAuliffe's experience in the big leagues running a national level campaign, (6) his personal lack of charisma and the list goes on. But we keep on circling back to the same bottom line - he lost while VA GOP legislators prevailed. He was deficient in a way that other VA GOP pols weren't.

Can he, will he learn from this result and do what he didn't before, or will his ego turn him into a "what could have been" memory.
