Virginia voters bag another gop establishment tool! (vanity)
Virginia Department of Elections | 6-14-16 | RKBA Democrat

Posted on 06/14/2016 4:50:08 PM PDT by RKBA Democrat

Second Congressional District in Virginia. Tidewater area for the Virginia challenged.

135 of 180 precincts reporting: Pat Cardwell 2213 votes 6.83% J. Randy Forbes 13165 40.61% Scott W. Taylor 17,039 52.56%

Scott Taylor is in the House of Delegates, former SEAL and all around good troop. This is a relatively safe gop district, so he'll likely win the general.

Randy Forbes is a carpetbagger from western tidewater, 4th district. He doesn't live in the 2nd. His 4th district was redrawn and is now leaning rat. The incumbent in the 2nd decided to retire to let Forbes run for the seat. It didn't work and we just got something of a two-fer: two gop establishment tools gone.

McConnell isn’t up for reelection until 2020.


These cowards will retire to K Streets millions before they face the wrath of voters for their treasonous behavior.

He’s probably going to be carried out feet first from his Senate seat. He’ll be a month shy of 79 at the end of his term in January 2021 (and he’ll probably run again). The Senate is a great retirement home, doncha know ?

Forbes’s district was eliminated, so there was no “his own” district to run in. He had no chance of winning in a gerrymandered VRA district designed to elect a Black Democrat. A Republican would be lucky to get 35% in it.

Swell. A RINO at the head of the Senate for the next four years. Harry Ried in a different suit.

If McConnell dropped dead tonight, there’d just be another RINO knob-polisher for Zero to take his place. Ditto with Ryan in the House.

Randy was ok. He was in the pocket of defense contractors but the was a solid enough conservative overall. He didn’t have much of a chance in the 2nd district with the easiest argument being he didn’t live there and he was running against a Navy Seal. Now the 4th District is going to suck because I don’t see Mike Wade winning with it redrawn. He’s a nice enough guy but nice isn’t enough.

I attended a Scott Taylor event. He seems like the real deal.

What is treason to us is “statesmanship” to a Kentuckian.

Forbes is a good guy. Not everyone who loses deserves a loss.

We don’t need more laws. We have millions of laws in this country. I don’t judge someone by how many laws they have passed. Actually, that is a superficial and lazy way of looking at someone.

God help us if there are many like you out there - you are completely uninformed. I’m surprised you are not banging on pots and pans and handing out candy.

Yes, that is an excellent suggestion. The democrat poster is a complete loon. If left to him/her, there would be no conservatives left anywhere.

Victory for Gope. Forbes replacement will have no standing and easily manipulated. Bad for maintaining NN shipyard, fleet and conservatives. Cruz mindset at play.

Forbes voted with Pelosi and the democrats to ban incandescent light bulbs.

The voters in his original district should have thrown his nanny statist ass out years ago.

Here in the 5th District of Virginia, we weren’t even allowed to vote. It was decided by some weird convention process. I won’t even bother to look up ‘our’ candidate’s name.
