That's what Sears should do. That's the kind of thing we voters care about


What tax do you want to increase to offset that loss in revenue?


Who cares? Jim Gilmore won on that issue alone. Virginia survived.


So you want a meaningless promise?

Let me guess, you wanted that wall.


It was good politics, that's all I'm saying. And Va. has always been a well managed state so I don't know what you mean by meaningless promise. I hate the care tax.


It’s terrible politics. A politician making promises they can’t keep is meaningless.

VA needs revenue. If you want to take away the car tax, where else do you want to be taxed? Income? Sales tax?


? I guess you weren't around when Jim Gilmore ran and won on this very issue


Effective campaigning isn’t good politics. Lies and empty promises are effective when clueless people believe them.

I was here and voted against that nonsense.

VA needs leaders who don’t make meaningless promises.




NP. What troubled me about Spanberger’s debate performance was how evasive she was. She evaded every question.

Why do I get the feeling she is lying to us?


She didn't give simple yes/no bumper sticker slogans, but that's not evasive. She answered every question with balanced and thoughtful answers, which is actually how good governing works. You sound like you're conditioned for the world to be in black and white, which isn't reality and leads to bad policy.

I was impressed that Spanberger kept her cool and never got flustered by Sears' crazy stream of interruptions.

When Spanburger wins by double digits?


Both voting companies are now owned by Trump supporters. Why would you think Spanberger has a chance to win? Dominion Voting Systems was acquired by St. Louis-based Liberty Vote this month.

During the 2020 election you people said it was a conspiracy theory, and I American to be suspicious of dominion and the broader mechanics of the election (late night mail in ballot dumps, etc). Now you are engaging with the idea of election fraud. Hypocrites

DP. So out of all of those cases of suspected voting fraud/tampering in 2020, how much of it actually turned out to be true?

You guys worry about “election integrity” when there is zero evidence of it.

This is a legitimate concern.

You’ve lost the plot if you think this is a legitimate concern in this context and can’t see how the R’s felt the same way in 2020.

If R’s need direct evidence to be concerned, where’s yours?

Rs don't need evidence to be convinced of anything. They were ready to hang Pence FFS.

Again, so out of all of those cases of suspected voting fraud/tampering in 2020, how much of it actually turned out to be true?

Most of it was not investigated because of "lack of standing."

As for the gallows, no one ever found who erected it. Odd. Kind of like no one finding who placed the bombs.

I want to see how well they do.

Whoever wins it will be they first female Virginia governor. So history is being made.

Why do you want to know why I'm excited, I feel like that's a bigger question because my answers were pretty obvious.


LOL Sears can not do well. She hasn't shown up for one speaking event she has zero to say.

Spanberger will wipe the floor with her just by opening her mouth.

And Sears with lie and spew crap over and over again.

Great idea for an African American Women to stay with the party that literally hates her guts because of the color of her skin.


She is not AA, she is Jamaican.


It absolutely matters, black immigrants are NOT the same as American Descendants of Slaves (ADOS) or FBA (Foundational Black Americans)... we aren't stupid enough to be in the Republican Party and uphold Trump.... many of those so called "Black Republicans" are often immigrants or children of immigrants who are ignorant of the American political system... truly many of them are just grateful to be in America and don't really have a clue about American politics, true American history (good/bad/ugly) case in point Sears...so please do not no lump ignorant black immigrants with Foundational black Americans... we are NOT the same people


Just curious what you think of Kamala Harris’ ethnic background?



“bUt tHaT’s dIFfErEnT!!!”

DP. A lot of black Americans dont consider her black. She does get a lot of mileage out of having gone to a hbcu. I don’t agree with PP but it’s not really that simple.

I’d say it doesn’t matter if they “consider her black.” If she identifies as black, that’s all that matters. Did they not consider Obama black because he was half white?
