4 Shady Things...

[mtangelsfan]

I think all people should take a test.  Not certain ones.  Geez.  I want informed voters, I couldn't care less what race, creed, color, ideology or favorite baseball team is.  (except the red sox of course).

[CaliAngel]

I wish folks had to pass a social studies test to vote.

 

The bottom line is Liberals don't want voters to be educated because they'd never win an election ever again.

[mtangelsfan]

Liberals aren't the only ones who benefit from stupid voters.

[CaliAngel]

I agree, stupid voters are capable of voting for any party.

McAuliffe is a scumbag, which is like stating the sky is blue. This shows how poor a candidate the Cooch was. This would have never happened if Lt. Gov Bolling ran but because Cooch moved to get the GOP nominee selected at a convention, he felt he had no chance to win which is exactly true. Just another instance of Republicans shooting themselves in the foot with candidate selection. I'll be surprised if the Macker finishes out his term. I would have had a hard time voting for him, I might have voted for the Libertarian and I don't exactly like those guys.

This race wasn't quite on the level of Edwin Edwards vs David Duke but it was close. Congrats to the fine citizens of the great state (Commonwealth) of Virginia.

Edwards v. Duke, some of the greatest quotes ever from a political campaign. Vote for the crook, it's important! Vote for the lizard, not the wizard! When a reporter asked Edwards what he had in common with Duke, he said they are both wizards under the sheets! Edwards just got out of prison a little while ago, he's 87 and he has a newborn with a woman in her 30's, well played Governor!

Just another instance of liberals blaming conservatives when liberal politicians are scumbags.

[Caralho]

Read my post again, I am blaming the Republicans for pissing away a winnable race because they picked a far-right douche as their candidate.

[mtangelsfan]

Racist!

[acro2008]

So many have been brainwashed into the left-right, liberal-conservative paradigm.

I met McAuliffe last summer on the beach in Asbury Park. 

 

He was performing a wedding, and kept mentioning his campaign during the ceremony. The couple getting married were volunteers for his bid for governor.

 

He sounded lie a total political tool, and a big phony.

I was thinking this thread was going somewhere else.

Getting back to the OP.  This this shows that a majority of voters are complete idiots.  All they look at is "R" and "D".  

 

I wish folks had to pass a social studies test to vote.

I agree. American voters are to lazy to be informed and just take what the MSM says as truth.

He only won because the dems paid for a third party "libertarian" candidate to siphon votes from Ken Cuccinelli. A sad day for our state.

Anyway McCauliffe only won because the republicans managed to find the one guy in the state who is an even bigger a-hole.
