Yes, ever since the days of John Warner. The state GOP has been secretly backing marginal screwball libertarian candidates who drain votes from conservatives. If not for this treachery, Oliver North would have been a Senator.
Great post. We need to hear more from you.
Just now had time to find it. Gillespie almost pulled it out...........
2014 United States Senate election in Virginia
Nominee Mark Warner Ed Gillespie
Party Democratic Republican
Popular vote 1,073,667 1,055,940
Percentage 49.1% 48.3%
Realclearpolitics had Warner up by an average of 9.7 points
Warner won by .08%(2014)
You can usually identify them when you make a positive statement and they reply with "I hope you are right."
Negativity and pessimism are poisonous to the soul.
If not for this treachery, Oliver North would have been a Senator.
= = = = = = = = =
AND Cuchinello would have been Gov rather that McA(wful)ulliffe
Right up to election day VAGOP ‘refused’ to completely back Cuch and believe it was him on air day before saying the VaGOP was ignoring the Libertarian candidate, WHO the local Libertarians was saying the guy was ‘NFG’ but was backed and promoted by Texas money.
I have been in favor of not being able to donate to a candidate that doesn’t figure in ‘governing’ you if they win.
No reason the position of ‘dog catcher’ in ‘Xray County MI’ should be being backed by those in TX or MO etc etc.

Fairfax, loudoun, and prince William county kills the state.
I think the 2A is on Virginia’s mind ... even in Fairfax and Loudoun.
It isn’t a matter of being a troll, it’s a matter of familiarity with the area. Northern VA is chockful of wealthy, leftwing government beaurocrats and teat-suckers as well as massive numbers of immigrants. Walk thru some retail stores there and you can count on one hand how many people speak English. I hope like hell the lower counties come out and the lefties figure it’s in the bag and stay home, but experience doesn’t prove that out. Pessimistic or realistic? Too much false hope isn’t healthy, either.
FOOL'S GOLD, we were told.
Why Trump is wasting his resources and time in PA. That was "Hillary Country" after all. "Just being realistic here" said the smart set.
Glad Trump didn't listen to the defeatists (like you) and made a play for the state of Pennsylvania nonetheless.
Yes, Virginaia is about 20% black now and when they voted 93% for Hillary it gives them 18 to 2 lead in the race to 50%, that’s why Trumps out reach to African Americans and Hispanics is so important. People focus on white liberal and they are really just riding the votes of Blacks and Hispanics
Because it keeps Dems putting money there (where they wouldn’t if Trump was holding huge rallies there) and reduces money in other places like PA, WI, MI. Also his running well in MN, NV and NH does the same.
Is there any estimate of the numbers of the Newport News crowd?I don't know about attendance but RSBN, the youtube channel that covers every (and only) Trump events said they had a record 119,000 viewers.
“In every FR thread about Trump’s chances to flip a 2016 Blue State to 2020 Red, there are always Debbie Downers who chime in to say he can’t win there.”
I tend to agree with you. Some of these just don’t even talk like conservatives. There is no doubt that there are3 those who either are paid, or leftist partisans, who seek to discourage the Trump base! But I don’t think that will work. I believe that MN is in play for sure. We will win NH. As for VA, it may be hard, but don’t underestimate Trump and his instincts. They are usually correct!
Not every naysayer is a troll. but I suspect many are.
It was a great rally but Virginia, like Illinois or New York, is a blue state not a purple state, due to the large, leftist population near a large city (i.e. D.C.). I doubt it will go for Trump. He just needs PA, MI, and WI again.
JoMa
yeah that sounds about right.
biden’s numbers in northern virginia are not going to be as good as hillary’s numbers.
...but the communist voter fraud will be MUCH greater than HELLary’s numbers.
