Ken Cuccinelli is closing in! [Fundraising email? Is it for real?!]
Conservative Intlelligence/Black America Political Action Committee | 10/23/13

Posted on 10/23/2013 6:41:36 AM PDT by SoFloFreeper

Dear Patriot,

Tea Party hero Ken Cuccinelli is now statistically tied in his race to be Virginia's governor.

Ken has closed the gap, but money is pouring into his liberal opponent's campaign, and the leftists are carpet bombing Virginia's voters with anti-conservative attack ads!

Please make an urgent contribution of $25, $30, $50, $100, $250, or more to help elect Ken Cuccinelli.

This is the very most important race in the nation this year. And Ken Cuccinelli was the very first state attorney general to file suit against Obamacare.

That's why BAMPAC is going "all in" for Ken.

You see, Barack Obama wants to defeat Ken Cuccinelli really, really badly. So he is backing former DNC chairman Terry McAuliffe very heavily against this Tea Party hero.

Obama wants revenge on Cuccinelli because he led the legal movement to overturn Obamacare.

Interesting...I just got an invitation to a post card party here in Florida, I guess they have voter mailing lists from VA and want personal reminders to vote!

Can anyone tell me what poll(s) these folks are referring to? Or is this just another plea for cash?

Most likely the later.

the libs in MA vote for a ‘Republican’...

Not so. Conservatives and republicans joined forces to vote for Brown the first time around, while the lib turnout was depressed due to Marsha's awful campaign and Brown's stellar campaign, and most of all, it was a special election with low turnout.

All of that was reversed the second time around.

I’m already VERY disappointed in my once great home state for helping elect 0bama(twice...).

Never give up. This race comes down to turnout. The polls are meaningless unless the sample exactly mimics those who actually go out to vote. There is hope if patriots throughout VA go and vote for Cuccinelli. Even Romney almost won last November. Surely Cooch can do better. Just get all of the voters out in the 'red' counties!

Yes, well we have one. And it is being soundly rejected by many, the majority of republicans, and many pundits who call themselves conservatives.

Certainly the status quo is not going to work. It has been losing steam steadily, and BO and his people are made for this environment.

J Dupree said yesterday, in response to, “Is this BO’s Katrina?”
“No, I wouldn’t go that far”

Imagine this fiasco being overseen, created by and run by ‘W’.

Where the average person will pay hundreds more per month on nothing. Lost his medical care and has to pay for it by a budget breaking hundreds per month, in this magnitude, and compare it to his not visiting the hurricane zone where he thought there were hard working, normal, self sufficient Americans with a local government who was helping them, and realizing his error went to visit days later the federally dependent, wasteland, and he is blamed for the event, the loss, the weather, every hurricane since.

Imagine his overseeing this fiasco and imagine the difference.

Republicans are continually scrambling to escape blame.

Their wimpiness is not working.

It has grown to the point that people wonder realistically whether they actually want the majority in any of the branches.

It certainly does not matter if they have it.

My take is not necessary at this point in the race. It is not over till it’s over and voting is very important.

Every poll I have seen has Cuccinelli down in the 6% and worse range. Every campaign claims it is closing in to keep the fundraising going. I bet there will be the leaks of “internal polling” claiming Cuccinelli is catching up.

Polls don t lie. VA race began close. With a bad economy the GOP should have an edge. Now they are 5 to 10 points short. Gap widen during and after shutdown.
Here is the irony. The shutdown came at a price in VA just to unfund Obamacare. If the GOP did not bring the shutdown and Debt Limit (which pisses off powerful people on Wall Street), Obamacare issue will come at no political damage to GOP. In fact I will argue that Obamacare is so bad, Dems are actually asking Congress to pass delay. In other words Obamacare will give the GOP the upper hand in the negotiation because the longer it takes for the Dems to get the delay, the more political damage is done on the Dems in the 2014 elections. Even the VA race would be affected. The GOP attempt to shutown gov and debt limit wounded the GOP and the Obamacare fiasco wounded the Dems. Both parties enter 2014 wounded. If the shutdown did not occur, the Dems would be the only ones entering 2014 politically wounded.
There is nothing wrong being principled, but being blind to tactical political reality will make the movement a short one.

....money is pouring into McAuliffe's campaign....

Virginia TV airs 2-3 McAuliffe ads against Cuccinelli ads---McAuliffe must be spending easily ten, twenty, fifty times what Cuccinelli is spending. B/c McAuliffe's got zillions at his disposal.

McAuliffe is apparently polling well---and prolly receiving mucho campaign cash---from the "dearly departed" b/c a lawsuit Democrats filed says “the [VA State Board of Elections] is rushing to complete the purging of dead voters in time to have the desired effect on the upcoming gubernatorial election.....to make sure that those who no longer live here don’t vote here."

(cackle) The "dearly departed" are also Hillary voters.

The buzz is Terry is 2016 Hillary's place-keeper. If elected, grave-robber Terry will insure she has the votes to win. (That's after he rapes the VA state treasury.)

The desperate power-mad Clintons are no doubt financing their old buddy McAuliffe.......b/c the Clintons have three (count 'em) three tax-exempt foundations worth millions to siphon off money from.

====================================================

HILLARY DROPPED BY---MUSTA SEEMED LIKE OLD TIMES---
she cheered on loser McAuliffe for his 2009 gov campaign.

===============================================

OILING THE VOTE FRAUD MEAT GRINDER? Hillary and Bill both visited VA---just checking to make sure the Dem vote fraud meat grinder for Cuccinelli is in tip-top shape

There is only one way we can succeed in the current circumstances, and it involves a sea change in the attitude of the republican party - a take no prisoners unapologetic conservative approach recently personified by the senator from Texas. Most people would respond to this because people respond well to moral certainty.

But fat chance.

BTW J Dupree is an MSM putz hack. I don't know why Hannity gave the pnony bast*rd a job after Boortz retired.

AS FREEPER SCOTTINVA POSTED:

Alex Trebek: "The state that transformed itself from a cradle of American liberty to the laughing stock of the country when its voting populace chose to be fooled into thinking a corrupt, gladhanding, empty-suited hustler and ripoff artist was somehow preferable over a seasoned, serious conservative Attorney General."

Contestant: "What is Virginia?"

==================================================

McAuliffe was clueless WRT this shady investment deal---just wanted to "help the poor."

Attorney Joseph Caramadre, Cranston, RI, has been charged with sixty-six counts, including wire fraud, mail fraud, conspiracy, identity fraud, aggravated identity theft, money laundering, and witness tampering, in connection with an investment scheme in which Caramadre and co-Defendant Raymour Radhakrishnan allegedly victimized elderly and terminally-ill individuals.

=====================================================

MCAULIFFE'S DIRT PILE: Candidate McAwful's a triple threat---(1) he was lacerated for his sophomoric debating skills, (2) he worships abortion, and, (3) he's a Democrat ***-licker, lying-in-wait to profit from his high-level political connections.

=====================================================

<><>McAuliffe made a campaign promise to exempt existing abortion clinics from having to comply with state health and safety standards. Recently, a number of clinics in the state were closed after they failed to live up to state standards.

Last year, according to Women Speak Out, more than 80 violations were discovered inside Virginia abortion facilities. But that doesn't seem to stop McAuliffe from defending them. This clearly shows his concern is for the well being of the abortion industry and not women.

Here's what he said: "I can do what I talked about, issue a guidance opinion by March to keep the remaining health centers open. I can do that myself as Governor. That's why I said I'll do that by March to keep the remaining, uh, Norfolk is closed. Fairfax is closed, or closing, so there will be 18 left. Only one of those 18 actually meet the, the requirements so they'll all close if I don't do that. "

"But I will issue what's called a guidance opinion by mid-March which will say that these regulations, I have, the General Assembly wasn't definitive with the Board of Health as to the rules, I can give a guidance opinion to the Board of Health to grandfather in those remaining clinics to keep them open. That's why this election is so important, and I will do that."

==================================================

<><> SEC investigating illegalities in company co-founded by Terry McAuliffe / By David Sherfinski

The SEC is investigating the green car company founded by Va gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe over concerns that it allegedly (illegally) guaranteed returns for its investors. The SEC has subpoenaed bank records of GreenTech’s funding arm, the McLean-based financing company Gulf Coast Funds Management, LLC.

Documents attached to a July 31 letter from Sen. Charles E. Grassley also raise more questions on the extent of the interaction between officials at the two companies and Alejandro Mayorkas, the director of US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) in DHS.

DHS is investigating whether Mr. Mayorkas assisted in approving an investor visa application submitted by Gulf Coast, even after the application was denied and an appeal was rejected.

Mr. Mayorkas, Obama’s pick to be the next No. 2 at DHS, testified last week that the extent of his interaction with Mr. McAuliffe was one meeting in which he heard his complaints about investor visas being held up.

Mr. Grassley said it went further than that.“Contrary to the impression left by your answer, documents indicate that both before and after that meeting, you actually engaged in nearly a dozen contacts with Gulf Coast Funds Management between 2010 and 2013, including direct communications with Gulf Coast’s attorneys,” the Iowa Republican wrote to Mr. Mayorkas. “That one meeting with Mr. McAuliffe was clearly not the extent of your interaction on that matter.”

Officials at the two companies and did not immediately respond to requests for comment Friday. A spokesman for the McAuliffe campaign noted that Mr. McAuliffe left GreenTech in 2012 and that he has no knowledge of any investigation. News of the SEC investigation was first reported Friday by The Wash/Post.

The documents include forwarded e-mails from Mr. McAuliffe to Douglas Smith, an official in DHS’s office of the Private Sector, that were forwarded to Mr. Mayorkas and an e-mail from Mr. Mayorkas himself saying that face-to-face meetings for particular cases are not appropriate.”As the Director of this Agency, I do not adjudicate cases and am not the proper audience for a telephone call or a meeting about a particular case,” he wrote to Gulf Coast’s general counsel earlier this year. “I will forward your e-mail to the appropriate individual in the Agency.”

USCIS handles cases involved in the EB-5 program, where foreign investors put up between $500,000 and $1 million for American companies in exchange for legal status.

Govt attorneys wrote that such a meeting would violate the Administrative Procedures Act. “I think it also raises an impartiality issue if we entertain pre-decisional meetings of this sort with particular applicants and petitioners,” USCIS’s Ethics Officer wrote. “It is not a concern to have meetings with particular industries, trade groups, bar associations, etc., on systemic issues that are not case specific, so long as we are willing to meet with all.”

Gulf Coast is run by Anthony Rodham, the brother of former Secy of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, and is the finance arm of GreenTech Automotive Inc. Mr. McAuliffe founded GreenTech in 2009 and quietly stepped down as chairman in Dec — a fact only revealed in April in response to an inquiry from a Politico reporter.

I’m not aware of any polls which support this. Believe me, I wish I was. I’m a Virginian, and what’s happening to my state is killing me.

All I can say is, I still have old emails from Rick Perry’s presidential campaign that claimed he was closing the gap.
