Jay Jones, the scandalized Democratic candidate for attorney general in Virginia, snatched an unlikely victory Tuesday night, riding the coattails of the top of the ticket to become the commonwealth's chief law enforcement officer.

...He sparked outrage last month when text messages surfaced showing him gloating about putting 'two bullets' through the head of former Virginia House Speaker Todd Gilbert, a Republican.

In the same exchange, Jones suggested Gilbert was 'breeding little fascists' — a disturbing reference to the Speaker's two young children.

Jones looked poised for a loss in polling conducted in the final weeks of the race.

Because that is what the voters want.

Republicans are dreaming if they think this isn’t a war.

Sounds like Viginia’s average I.Q. has moved into single digits. Slobs.

Democrats are violent political opponents. Beware!

[Gene Eric]

the Rats embrace violence

[volare737]

It probably helped him. I bet it really motivated the democrats ‘base’!

[FlingWingFlyer]

Americans might want to carry a firearm when they have to be around this bastard.

I would say, this year, Virginia was a really hard case.
Trump war on deep state targeted too many Virginians depending on federal jobs.

All I know is that if I get caught doing 116 mph on I-64 in VA, I will demand the Jones deal, instead of losing my license. Law will no longer matter under this crap stain.

VA is a lost State

[SunkenCiv]

What's good for the goose...

[volare737]

Exactly. Democrats offer nothing but anger, violence and hate.

His comments probably increased democrat energy and turnout!

[JennysCool]

Deep Blue Virginians vote for Deep Blue candidates, no matter how terrible they are. Not a surprise.

“ Because that is what the voters want.

Yes, it’s a war. A civil war and a spiritual war.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

Virginia is as lost as NY, MN, WA, OR and CA.

RE: Shock win.

Only a shock to people with such a positive mental attitude they thought he would be an obviously wrong candidate for the majority’s vote.

I’m not that way. Wish I could be, though.

[Gene Eric]

no doubt

[frank ballenger]

Maybe along with fan letters the voters can send him bullets with GOP names on them to encourage him. /S

What a dirty scumbag he is.

[DarthVader]

This all but guarantees what I think is going to happen no matter the result of the election. Spanburger will be indicted with Brennan for treason by the end of this month. Then the fun begins and several states and cities will be under martial law. It’s been heading this way. The women who voted for these idiots are not capable of fighting a real war!
