"Some are blaming the RNC on this for not spending enough money. I doubt it. BOTH sides spent a fortune on this race."

Wrong. The RNC spent a fraction of what they spent on the previous gubernatorial election. Cuccinelli's campaign says they were on their own; in fact, the RNC pulled money from Cuccinelli and gave it to Christie.

There are numerous FR threads about it this morning.

It is true that McAuliffe spent more. It is not true that Cuccinelli lacked resources. I think his campaign spent more than $19 million——a HUGE amount in a small state like VA. Here in CA Meg Whitman spent $140 million of her own money to end up losing to Gov. Moonbeam. You can only spend so much. Had the RNC thrown in a few million more, I don’t think it would have made the difference. The difference is this particular race was the Libertarian candidate. Third parties help Democrats.
