No doubt about it, this was a loss for us on the heels of the Lonegan defeat in New Jersey, but there is very good news underneath all this
A) We can learn a lot from this race. It’s time to tackle key objectives where we don’t measure up to the DemoCraps. Answering these social issue attack ads early on, GOTV effort and ground game, and exposing fake libertarian candidates.
B) My take is that... had this race been held on Friday, Cooch would have won. This was a race where we ran out of time, but Obamacare is only getting worse. King Hussein is now in the 30s approval rating range. We have all the time in the world to make the case against the Dems in 2014, based on Obamacare.
C) The fact that this state, which is trending blue, which has huge numbers of mooching government hacks, which had us outspent by ludicrous margins, almost went for an unabashed conservative, Tea Party candidate says a lot about how red states with Democrap officials may vote in 2014. You come this close in Virginia, you better feel damn good about states like Arkansas and Louisiana.
I want to repeat, if we had just had a few more days, we would have won. Let that light the fire in your belly. The momentum is with US. Let Virginia get looted by this crook. He can’t do anything significant legally without the legislature, and as much as the pundits are making of his influence for 2016, do you remember McDonnell giving Romney the state? No.
Tonight is a pretext. The Democrat’s last skin of their teeth moment before annihilation.
It is my understanding that the VA legislature is made up of a majority of Republicans. If so, TM’s policies may be dead in the water anyway.
LONEGAN ran on an ANTI-ABORTION ticket, a PRO-GUN Ticket, and an ANTI-TAX ticket. He ran as a PURE CONSERVATIVE in a BLUE state where the Dems out number the GOP by 700,000 voters, the opposition had him out spent 10 to 1, and he got 44% of the VOTE!!!
Not a victory, but IMPRESSIVE ANYWAY.
And the Damn NJ RINO GOP establishment did NOTHING for him - even the Governor refused to campaign with him.
What happened in New Jersey and in Virginia can be a START towards TAKING OUR COUNTRY BACK from the Communists and Muslims and RINOs and Statists who run it now.
