Corey Stewart, Virginia’s voter-chosen Republican to fight for Democrat Tim Kaine’s U.S. Senate seat, is a divisive guy who calls it like it is, cares little for political correctness and who finds himself in frequent defensive stand-offs with a hostile press.
In other words, he has a really good chance of winning this November.

But all that, in this political climate, means zero-to-nothing.
Stewart’s a guy whose entire political career with the Board of Supervisors in Prince William County, Virginia, has stirred pots of controversy. For instance: He was the face of hate to the left during the widely reported, widely watched fight over 287(g), the program the county implemented years ago to crack down on illegal immigration in the community.
When pro-immigrant groups led by far-left politicos banded and bused in hundreds from out-of-county, even out-of-state, to protest the program, Stewart — along with his fellow 287(g) supporters on the board — stood strong and made clear the battle was about law and order and life and death, and that the good men and women of Prince William were sick and tired of illegals killing their law-abiding citizen-friends.
You can see where the left would go nuts with that. You can’t see why Republicans wouldn’t respect that. Regardless, recall — that’s exactly the message that pushed Trump to the head of the pack during campaign days. Kate Steinle, anyone?
Now comes Stewart, hated by the press, hated by the left, hated by many of his own party — speaking politically incorrect rhetoric that revolves around a single core message, America First. Make that, a winning core message of America First.

In Virginia? Probably not.
Does anyone have that clown-like picture of Kaine that Drudge posted after the VP debate? It says it all!
Unless Corey can swing NOVA, Richmond, Charlottesville, heavily populated parts of Hampton Roads, Harrisonburg, Roanoke and other liberal population centers like Williamsburg he will not carry the election. Virginia is blue. The House of Delagates remain mixed. The argument will focus on Stewarts lack of ecperience.
Conservatives in Virginia have been disenfrachised for at least 30 years now.
The one where he’s looking out the window of the “short bus?”
Yes! That’s it!
If God takes control, he will win.
Agree; he will not swing Arlington and Alexandria which are deep Bolshevik blue except for pockets. Maybe he will do better in the outer counties of Northern VA such as Loudon, Fairfax and Prince William - otherwise the massive vote of federal employees, contractors, relocated Massachusetts liberals and Mideast immigrants will counter the Valley, Central and Southern VA and VA Beach.
Mighty thin hopes to base an election run on.
God is always in control. He only works to His own agenda, whether we like it or not.
In 2014 I said that Hillary would not win when every else told me I was wrong. When Trump got the go for President, I said he was going to win when all around me said he would lose. Ask my wife. She was one of them. My hope is the strongest anywhere.
In the Virginia of two decades ago, he'd have a solid chance. Unfortunately, Fairfax and Arlington Counties rule VA with an iron fist at election time.
This isn't 20 years ago, unfortunately. You live in a Blue State now, my friend.
>> he has a really good chance of winning this November <<
Most delusional statement, so far, of the year?
>> The argument will focus on Stewarts lack of ecperience <<
Nope, it will focus on his past association with white supremacist groups and with the anti-Semitic Paul Nehlen.
That there is the undeniable truth. The Occupied North sees to that every statewide election.
Thank you! Stewart should use this in his campaign.
