Tea Party favorite Ken Cuccinelli, abandoned by the Republican establishment as too "extreme" to win in Virginia, crushed Democrat Terry McAuliffe among independent voters by 9 percentage points, 47%-38%. The key to McAuliffe's victory was that the Democrat--assisted by the ruthless data-mining operation that fueled Barack Obama's 2012 re-election--turned out his party's base, while conservative voters were divided.
Cuccinelli's winning margin among independent voters was only slightly lower than Mitt Romney's 12-point margin in 2012.

It's time to end Women's Suffrage. Haven't they suffered enough?!
You aren’t wrong. Stupid women who see nothing but a chance to kill unborn babies. That is their #1 issue. High taxes be damned - gun laws be damned - the nanny state be damned -its all about killing babies and their vaginas.
Someone should find out if the Democrat Civitas “big” database uses data supplied by IRS, NSA, FBI, CIA or any other government source that is not an “open source”.
Did you ever tell your wife or gf that she didn’t look good in that
“You aren’t wrong. Stupid women who see nothing but a chance to kill unborn babies.”
So these idiots are a bunch of Sandra Flukes?
Imagine, they elected a crook as governor.
This idiocracy will fall on itself to elect shrillery in 16 too.
oh well, see tagline.
Cuccinelli lost women who believed the war-on-women line and lost six percent to the Lib candidate.
I’m gonna throw up.
