Past The Spin, How Does @KenCuccinelli Really Feel About #ObamaCare?

Posted on | October 19, 2013 | 32 Comments

by Smitty

The Weekly Republican Address has just one focal point:

It’s down to crunch time for America. May Ken win next month’s gubernatorial election in Virginia, and may that event mark the turning point in America’s peaceful defeat of the domestic enemies of our Constitution.

Ken Cuccinelli for Governor

As ObamaCare embarrasses our country, so would McAuliffe the Commonwealth of Virginia

    Virginia, you are better than New Jersey. Really, you are. Don’t be like New Jersey.

    Do the right thing.

    Saw a story the other day about how hillery campaigning for mcauliffe meant that mcauliffe was a lock. For Virginia and your sake Smitty I hope that’s wishcasting.

    He’s not going to win. Terry is a horror , the sleaziest of sleazes, and Dems hate Terry, and Terry is going to win. That’s how unpopular Ken C is. I despair. I’ll get to the polls, but I’m furious this election is lost when Bolling would have cleaned McCauliffe’s clock.

    I thought Bolling was McAuliffe? They aren’t the same person? With Bolling grabbing up his toys and running home, there’s not a knife’s edge worth of difference between Bolling and McAuliffe.

    Sure there is. Especially with regard to Ocare pushback.

    As I’ve posted elsewhere, if you want to stop both Hillary and Christie from being their respective parties’ coronated nominees in 2016 vote for, volunteer, and donate

    to make sure Ken Cuccinelli is Virginia’s next Governor
    http://www.cuccinelli.com/
    Donate if you can
    Volunteer if you live in state
    and if you can’t do either help spread the word over the internet
    like I’m doing.

    Was that on Redstate? Because a certain diarist there put up a diary basically saying that. I wouldn’t take it too seriously. People have been lionizing Hillary since before she entered the WH
    Hillary’s endorsement means jack in Virginia.

    Bolling would be losing just as badly as Ken ( War on Women) and just as ineffective in debunking such slurs. Unlike Bolling ken is actually liked by the Base and that is the pathway to victory in a low turnout election.

    October 19th, 2013 @ 9:24 pm

    Nah. Wasn’t Redstate. I really don’t recall where I read that. But I know it wasn’t Redstate. Not part of my blogroll. If someone links to a post there, I’ll generally go read that, but I don’t linger.

    I can’t agree. I’m a Virginian and maybe more familiar with local politics. “His base” is limited and it’s them I blame; they would not consider his “irritant” qualitiesl, or weak spots. Bolling had the advantage of being better liked and less polarizing.

    The gubernatorial election draws more purplish voters, which is specifically legislated to be off year from presidential elections. You need the purple vote to win.

    Ken was more vulnerable to the war on women issue.

    TM was originally destined to lose – a throwaway His own VA party thought he was weak candidate,both vulnerable and objectively crooked and repulsive. They can not believe their good luck.

    It appears that New Jersey is going to “go full New Jersey” starting Monday…

    Bolling is a good ole boy who’s ticked that the people decided on Cooch. See, Bolling is like the slime that inhabits DC: It’s my turn next.

    It’s not “real Virginia” that’s the problem. It’s all the hundreds of thousands of federal gubmint employees ringing DC. Life is good for them. Sucks to be everyone else.

    Oh okay, I know a diarist over there who basically declared Ken as having lost, because of Hillary’s endorsement.
    Many over at RS think she’s a troll since she has an obsession with Hillary and turning her into some bogey man for us on the Right to tremble in fear at the sound of her name.

    Nobody in VA expected TM to be able to raise as much cash as he did, or to nationalize this race as much as he did.
    This happened in part because of TM’s national connections, but also because of Ken’s strong conservative stands.
    But as far as the War on Women meme, Bolling helped pass anti-abortion laws, and even helped Ken try to defund Planned Parenthood.
    Like Ken he would have hired some of Romney’s flunkies, and unlike Ken Bolling isn’t as well like among the grassroots.

    Now that Christie has pulled the plug on any appeal to the juducial decree creating homosexual “marriage” in New Jersey (not to imply that that would have had the slightest chance of success), New Jersey has outdone itself! Until today, I still had a modicum of respect for Chris Christie, in spite of everything else, just for his stance on this one issue…
