Sure. Come out to McLean. We will have you over for a drink and you can call me, my wife, and many of our friends names...

Sorry, we don’t hang out with traitors.

Can you imagine being married to this constantly repeating troll? I feel bad for his immuno-compromised spouse. No wonder he’s on this forum posting nonsense day and night.

I am certain none of us are missing a thing! The PP dodged a bullet.

Amen. The whacky fringe's drive the headlines and money...moderates get hosed (along with the poor)...2 party system sucks.

I agree 100%. Two different types of crazy.

I wish Rs didn't fall into the fake controversy over CRT and I support transstudents rights. But VA public schools are messed up and the mask mandate needs to be lifted on kids. The CDC has jumped the shark with the latest statements about masking even after kids are vaccinated. Rates are low and vaccines are imminent, governors need to start announcing off-ramp plans now. I have zero confidence in McAuliffe on these issues.

The pandemia is not over and kids need to keep their mask on at school. Precaution doesn’t hurt, being R-neck does.

Oh just stop. Schools in Europe were open throughout the pandemic. Our schools closed because of the Teachers union pressure. Not because of the science.

Lies. Schools in Europe also did distance learning.

Rs can’t campaign without lying.

Yes. My husband and I are Democrats but between church (our parish is about half and half) and homeschooling groups I know a lot of Republicans. I live in Alexandria and go to church in Falls Church, so these people aren't from the outskirts of Nova.

Big time LOL at people who think they don’t live, work, eat or interact with Republicans on a daily basis.

https://www.politico.com/amp/news/2021/10/05/youngkin-virginia-governor-election-audit-machines-515166

“Virginia’s state elections department has already conducted a post-election audit, running a statewide “risk-limiting audit” for the first time after the last election. The process tests the accuracy of voting machines and has been increasingly embraced by election security professionals as a safety measure to guarantee accurate vote counts. The Virginia audit confirmed the 2020 results in the state.“

While this is true. Amanda Chase and Youngkin are talking about election audits daily as a Trumpian talking point.

Voting for Youngkin will definitely mean more "audits" and more taxpayers paying millions of more $ in taxes. Because just like GA not only did taxpayers have to pay out of pocket for the audits because GA does not allow anyone to pay but the state people who donated to Trump's election lies gave monies at least twice. Fun times for hard-working Americans from the supposed party of fiscal responsibility GOP fails again and lies again and again.

This. School closures were because Trump (who I despise) said “open schools” in July or August. Because people around here have the maturity of gnats, they HAD to do the opposite of what Trump said because TRUMP! So the children were thrown under the bus for entirely unscientific adult temper tantrum. All I can say is Go Youngkin!!

This. Many of us are just discreet because we don’t want to be attacked or harassed by the illiberal left.

It’s not just audits. It’s replacing election results with the wishes of the legislators, like GA has done and other R atates are working on.

Voting for Youngkin means you are a traitor to the US, you stand with Don the Con and his treason.


At this point in time God help us all if Youngkin wins. GOP will get exactly what they deserve, if you think we have supply chain problems, or school issues, or police issues or anything else they flap about you are not doing your homework.

How many red states have good schools? How many red states treat women well? How many red states believe our election had fraud when it did not? Ohio has Jim Jordan, Texas Gov Abbott, Youngkin will be Abbott and DeSantis rolled into one your children's world will be ruined.

Blue states take care of red states financially. Time to stop that. Time for red states to stand on their own if they want Tratiors like Youngkin.

Any female voting for the guy who is going to take away birth control not just abortion ladies birth control and by the way your jobs because he wants you home barefoot and pregnant well gee ladies go ahead and take us back to the 1940's. UGH

And, you think your ranting is going to change minds or influence undecided voters?

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.

Others like me read your post and think, "Gee, I don't want to be associated with anyone who supports McAuliffe. They are unhinged. My vote is for Youngkin."

Seriously, bud. Get help.

+1000 So much this.

No, literally the opposite of this. You realize that you can be a rich white man and actually believe and do different things.

Youngkin plans on advancing lardass’s agenda of no more elections.

When McAuliffe was governor, he literally restored peoples’ voting rights. He ADVANCED democracy.

These guys are not at all the same person … you just don’t know a GD thing about thing and you still open your mouth …

It’s not BS. This is what all these states were actually doing while the stupid “liberal media” was complaining that bringing water to voters in lines wouldn’t be allowed anymore.

”Republican lawmakers this year passed an unprecedented bevy of bills targeting the authority of state and local election officials, a power grab that might allow partisan legislators to overturn future election results by claiming there was fraud.”

Many of us support Younkin in Arlington but also realize that opponents will light our flags on fire, egg our house, tear up our sign and vandalize our property. Why make a target of ourselves and our family by the party that loves diversity intersectionality, but not diversity of thought. Many of my D friends have admitted they will be voting for Younkin this round - mostly based on school issues and the teacher's union only caring about teachers.

How many F**King times do I have to hear some dumbf**k republican say that dems don’t like diversity of thought bc we tell them no, we won’t listen to their climate-change denying, horse-paste eating, racist and idiotic theories? Like no….it’s not diversity of thought to hear how dumb y’all are. No one ever said - let’s just listen to every chicken sh!t idea.

So when posters don't agree you resort to this type of response. Some of us don't agree with you that if Youngkin wins that everything is doom and gloom. Democrats have total control now and our Federal government and how is that going for us? I would love a third party option but one does not exist. Some of us are not even Republicans that you are yelling at. I voted for Biden but will not be voting for McAuliffe. Only voted for Biden because I could not stand Trump. We are not all the same no matter how much you wish that was the case.

You can believe you aren’t the same, but unfortunately, since republicans are advancing a fascist agenda with the Ultimate goal of ending democratic elections…if you are not supporting the opposition (i.e., democrats), you are effectively the same….I dont really care how you feel inside..your actions will allow republicans to end our democracy and that you don’t see that is the issue.
