Thread for discussion of tonight's VA Gov Elecitons Result. Is this too early?

We need to burn defeatists at the stake and on the front page no less!

FRiends-need some help. Would someone please post the story on Obama Campaign bundler helping fund libertarian in tight VA race? I’m on my cellphone and can’t get home for an hour or more. The story is on the blaze. And yes, its hugh and series!

Thanks and pray for the Commonwealth.

[LibLieSlayer]

I am through with quitters, naysayers and defeatists PERIOD... and I do not lie like obama!

The most famous “naysayer” is a fictional character:

John Galt.

The problem, though, is that isn’t the narrative that’s going to be reported, it’s going to be how the “Tea Part hijacked the Lt Gov race in VA, caused the shutdown, and led to defeat of the VA Gov race

That is ridiculous. It is not uncommon for the results to be split in Commonwealth elections. In 2005, we got a Dem Gov., a GOP Lt. Gov, and a GOP AG. In 2001, we got a Dem Gov., a Dem Lt. Gov, and a GOP AG. Jackson's race will have no effect on Cuccinelli, and vice versa.

Number 152 at my precinct this morning at 0700. Pretty conservative district in West Hanover.

So there was some $16,000 provided to the Lib effort?

[pgkdan]

. I am old short track and drag racer. I never once in my entire life got behind the wheel before the race began, and considered myself beaten before I even cranked up the engine!!!

Amen brother! The last I heard the polls are open until 7:00!

[tsowellfan]

And now we find out the Libertarian candidate was funded by one of Obama’s Bundlers from Texas.

Hey, if Obama didn't back him the GOPe would have.

I couldn't agree more. I think many of them are paid agents who have infiltrated our camp to demoralize the troops. They're very effective.

[verga]

Voted at 7 am this morning, no one in line, hoping this means the Demoncrats stay home.

"I think I’m in the only place in the country that doesn’t have something to vote on today."

Judging from the state of my nerves, I'd say count your blessings, LOL!

".......but the media has convinced people ken c. is a crook in waiting and will make women scrub pots all day long....."

It doesn't take a lot of effort to convince abject morons.

Well, this is not just a referendum on zerocare, but on the GOPe, as well. If the gope is having to spend resources depressing turnout *on their own candidate*, I guess that’s a good sign?

Krispy is getting 30% of the rat vote in NJ, maybe that means something.

“Krispy is getting 30% of the rat vote in NJ, maybe that means something.”

Could mean that 30% of the rats are chubby chasers, maybe.

I know nothing about this race - sorry, real life throwing me for a loop these days. But I saw today on Facebook a contact of mine wrote that he is a lifelong republican going to vote today in VA for a straight democratic ticket. He feels really weird about it but it has to be done.

Then a liberal hack I know in CA was strident about getting people out to vote for McCauliffe and about how important this election is.

What’s the thrust? Fighting the Evil Tea Party? What is motivating these people, especially the first guy I mentioned?

[FrdmLvr]

Is the recall of the gun grabber today?

[txhurl]

I was trying to think up something positive, like zerocare.
