Yeah, McAuliffe can say he’s running and Democrats would be stupid enough to nominate him.

They were stupid enough to nominate him in 2021 even though he was a washed-up, tone-deaf political hack who repeatedly stuck his foot in his mouth and handed the election to a political novice, but they won’t make that mistake again.

They just might. They are that stupid.

So you do not care about a candidate’s position on issues that are important to you, what you really care about is what color their skin is? This is not as progressive as you think it is lady.

+1
What a truly telling post.

This is the "progressive" mind in a nutshell.

was is the most centrist person ever.

Terry was *

He has no principles so in that sense was centrist, but was tacking left during the primary season to try and appease the left-wing crazies. In doing so he rendered himself unelectable in a state-wide election.

He did not even try in the primary. He knew he didn't have to. He was moderate the whole time throughout his campaign. There was no possible candidate more moderate than Terry McAuliffe.

You shall have one.

She is awesome, but too far left. The D establishment in the state will not back her.

They will say she has:

- blocked a gas stove ban
-blocked a bill to ensure medical care for babies born after a failed abortion
- blocked parental rights protection for their child's education
-supported a pathway to amnesty for illegal immigrants.
- voted in support of softening the punishment for homicide, robberies, and carjackings in DC.


She would be great, but it not electable.

Name a Virginia Democrat with experience to run for Governor who’s further to the right than she is.

This post is bananas. These were good votes and the bills she "blocked" were extreme right-wing nonsense.
1) No one was trying to ban gas stoves, and therefore there was no need for a law to prevent the banning of gas stoves.
2) "Failed abortions" are a made up, right-wing, propaganda issue.
3) Parental rights means right-wing parental rights based on misinformation and propaganda.
4) Good.
5) Weirdest claim ever since the Va legislature has no authority over punishments in DC.

Don Beyer for governor? You're crazy. He has no interest in it at all. Levar will be running of course. McClellan won't be because she is making some influence. And Elaine *Luria* has signaled she is not interested by forming a PAC that is actually helping Democrats instead of just sitting on cash.

The post is also bananas because Spanberger represents one of the most purple districts in the state. No far left candidate will ever win that district, it is about as moderate as it gets in VA.

I don’t know where unwavering support for the Defense-Intelligence Complex sits on the left-right spectrum these days, but she is a full-on bootlicker on that front.
