Is there exit polling that Sarvis took more from Cuccinelli ? McAuliffe internals showed that they would split the first 5% and after that be 2-1 from GOP voters. But I wonder if there wasn’t more of a Dem protest effect since the race ended up a lot tighter than those polls were showing.
The sheeple don’t care if Hillary ate fetuses for breakfast. They will vote for her in large numbers. More Americans today seek hand-outs from Papa government.
I believe the current electorate is pro socialist. More states are turning Blue. The real American Patriot is
diminished.
Conservatives losing these elections is not because they are poor candidates. It’s the rotted populace.
The numbers and the clues. Most vote straight ticket and Mark Obenshain wins over whatever. WHO knows Who these people are? How is it He wins and Ken Cuccinelli doesn’t? His name cancels the other in the database? Something as simple as that can screw a whole State? .This needs to be looked into.
Nobody said freedom is easy.
Lucky for now.
There’s the tip-off (AG). I agree with you, noodler.
And what Leo(Windhorse) said
“Yankee carpet-baggers should not govern southern states”
Amen!
What kind of person is Mark Obenshain? Is he a bonafide conservative or a squish? If the former, it shouldn’t be too long because McAuliffe is a typical corrupt SOB & they’re barely even putting up a pretense anymore.
Registered Libertarians that voted for Sarvis are delusional, so it’s hard to make sense of their motives.
Regarding the narrow margin, prolly a combination of protest and Tea Party as you suggest.
Another vote count brought to you by the friendly
folks at ACORN, a division of WALKING DEADOCRAT Inc.......
People around here have short memories.
Cuccinelli had a lot to do with the fact that Gingrich was kept off the ballot in the 2012 Virginia Republican primary, handing the prize to Romney.
Quite a few people here lambasted Cuccinelli for being a Romneybot and a GOPe RINO, and now, a year later, he somehow miraculously transformed himself into a red-blooded Tea Party conservative.
One can argue whether he was solely responsible for the debacle over Gingrich’s failed attempt to get on the ballot, but he clearly had a hand in it.
Maybe some Virginia voters remembered this flip-flop.
Cuccinelli foolishly did the bidding of the GOPe in 2012, and was shafted in return by the same party elite who care more about cash flow into their personal PACS/piggy banks than they do about repairing a badly damaged country.
And Rick Perry. I haven't forgotten.
interesting...
True enough.
Ultimately, it was the fault of the Gingrich campaign, but the underlying problem is a system that is structured to favor the well-funded establishment candidate.
I wonder if Virginia ever did relax it’s signature requirements post-2012 election, as Cuccinelli advocated?
Virginia is a one term governor state so McAuliffe will not be running for a second term anyway. As for corruption, the Rats have shown that they can overcome an amazing amount of baggage with mountains of money.
“Who are these “fellow Republicans?”
You mean starting with former Lt Gov Bill Bolling? You might remember him from when he was the head of the Romney campaign in VA. That was the same election where we had the streamlined gop primary ballot. Romney and Paul.
“It may take two to three years...but there’s going to be deals and corruption within his office, and he’s not the type that will get a second term.”
Well, I put his chances at not getting a second term as governor at 99.9999999999%.
(Governors in VA are limited to one term)
More like Hildebeast throwing her yeast infection in the pantsuit.
Ah.....I think we can be classier than Hillary - don’t you?
One has to hope that all those who voted for McAuliffe will sooner or later learn of his treasonous dealings along with his fellow chinagate criminals Hillary and Bill Clinton, Johnny Chung, Charlie Trie, John Huang, and Bernard Schwartz (Loral).

It’ll be Jeb vrs. Hillary.
Jeb wins.
The election is irrelevant, anyway.
We peasants lose regardless of the outcome.
