And I guarantee that of the idiots that say they’re fine with Mark Warner winning — ask which current Republican Senators they would contentedly support — I would guess one of the whole lot or none. That is the fairy tale land they are living in. I would suggest they move to Nazareth — at some point there will return The Candidate that I’m sure they’ll have no reservation supporting.

More hold your nose and vote for the lesser of two evils. This is not the way to win in the long term. Both parties have abandoned the American worker. Warner and Gillespie respond to their corporate paymasters.

Virginia is a purple state about to turn deep blue. NoVA has become the Detroit or Philadelphia when it comes to statewide races. And what happened last year when the Reps nominated a real conservative to be governor--Ken Cuccinelli? Bill Bolling, Boyd Marcus, and the Rep Mayor of Virginia Beach helped Terry McAwful to a narrow victory. When the GOPe doesn't get the nominee they want, they don't support the GOP candidate or fail to accept the nominated GOP candidate and run as independents like Murkowski. Frankly, I am sick of it. Voting for the lesser of two evils only works one way, i.e., when the GOPe is the nominee.

Right now we need to defeat Eric Cantor on Tuesday. The Dems haven't even nominated a candidate to oppose him. Dave Brat is the real conservative. Polls show him trailing 52-40. This despite being outspent by 15 to 1 by Cantor who refused to debate him.

It may look deep blue to you; however, the GOP now holds the majority in both chambers in the General Assembly.

In politics only winning counts. There is no “long term”. You’re making the perfect the enemy of the good. You’re confusing politics with the free market. In the free market you can pick from the smorgasbord and fill your plate with only the items you like. It’s customizable.

In politics it’s a 1 or a 0. Zeros don’t get to play. They just get to post to FR. Start thinking. Winning for decades, just like Democrats did starting with FDR is what is needed. It’ll take a generation to slowly, but steadily right the ship of state. There are big changes that take time, but you need majorities to implement them.
