The guy was a fake libertarian funded by the demorats.
Agreed
“IMHO this internal GOP civil war may cost their ability to win POTUS in 2016 and 2020.”
I agree. And I’d like to play to win but my problem is that I sucked it up and supported their clown (Romney) last time, but they did not support my guy this time (Cuccinelli.)
Black precincts are known for their voter fraud. The election was stolen.
Pray America is Waking Up
For sure...if it’s NJFatboy vs Hillary I’m writing in Putin!
Nearly every vote for the libertarian would of gone to Cuccinelli
Not according to the exit polling data. Seeing that the Democrat candidate couldn't even achieve a majority in the state is however a good sign.
As far as the LIVs are concerned all of the recent “mass shootings” were done by Tea Partiers - they never find out that the shooters were actually registered Democrats and left-wing freaks...
They have been so slandered in the media that is is amazing they survive at all.
I'm not convinced the GO-Pee even wants to win the presidency any more.
No. The party pulled funds from Cuch a month before election day. Cuch lost a very close race.
If Cuch was funded correctly he would have most likely won inspite of the Libertarian candidate..
BTW you should do something about your "umm" speech impediment.

...it’s true that the libertarian pulled from Mcauliffe as well, but Cuccinelli couldn’t afford to lose any votes, so that hurt...
...the writer states that married women went for Cuccinelli...a better metric would be to break up the married vote by age grouping...since couples rarely vote against each other, I’m guessing that older men and their wives drove that result...unfortunately northern Virginia is fast becoming yuppie heaven (just look at Rte 15 from Lucketts to Gainesville on a fall Saturday and see all the #@$%&*!soccer games, yuppiedom on display)and we see the electoral future for the state...singles and blacks also will play an increasing role...
...Virginia is experiencing its last ride with the Old Guard conservatives, at least in high profile elections...not beating the worn out, mealy mouthed hack McAuliffe suffering from Obamacare disease is not a good sign for the future...
Too true...
I’m in a “majority minority” district in my county in VA (thank you Voting Rights Act) and my black neighbors are nice, polite, hard working (most of them) and church going...
Yet they vote dim to a man every election....so sad.
At this point, I could care less about the Republicans. To follow Ronaldus Magnus, I didn’t leave the Republican Party, they left ME.
Since early this year, I’ve considered myself an Independent Conservative.
Hell, if Christie gets the nod in 2016. . . I’m not even going to bother to vote. . .
I think a lot of conservatives got pissed at the VA GOP when they gave them the choice of Romney or Ron Paul to vote for in the last pres. election. I recall lots of folks saying ‘I will never vote/support GOP again!’ over it. Maybe some of them meant it.

I meant the GOP primary, not the pres. election. D’oh.

If Cuch was funded correctly he would have most likely won inspite of the Libertarian candidate..
...all the funding in the world wasn’t going to win Fairfax County, which is bleeding away pubbie votes like a burst aorta...and which, in addition to being politically active, provided a massive block of votes to the election...
Hell, if Christie gets the nod in 2016. . . Im not even going to bother to vote. . .
...Hillary Clinton will send you effusive personal thanks for your half-vote...
And Cuccinelli had a hand in that fiasco, making sure that Romney got the VA delegates. You have to wonder whether Cuccinelli would have drifted left once in office in the true RINO tradition.
Fake (L) taking votes from Cuccinelli?
As a (L), he didn’t help himself with the alternative gas tax scheme (GPS tracking), but he received funding (legally)....does that make any difference in any party? Did the same benefactor hedge their bets by donating to the other part(y/ies)?
Now, you wish to place blame, put it on the party that couldn’t make the message resounding enough to bring out 3x as many people that stayed home (FWIR, there were 8.8M eligible voters, only 2.2 came out).

I'm not sure I buy your premise; libertarians are an odd group, and McAuliffe’s position on abortion, alone, would have appealed to many of them. In any case, there is nothing Republicans can do about the fact that libertarians are going to be on state-wide ballots in Virginia.
A few thousand “lost” ballots in the trunk of a car will do that.
