[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hope the people saying that they would vote for a guy who is wishing death upon people's kids are really Republicans trying to make Democrats look bad. Sadly I'm sure that there are still Democrats who would vote for such a person. I wish this country could get back to voting for the person rather than being so hyper partisan.[/quote]

Louise Lucas and Mamie Locke have reaffirmed their support for Jay Jones - after the horrible text message came to light.

There are always decisions to be made about how voters feel about a candidate's character as well as their positions.

A lot of us lean Democratic and were prepared to support Jones for his positions, but the recent revelations demonstrate a real lack of character and basic decency.

The fact that Lucas and Locke - who have always stood for soaking NoVa to benefit other parts of the state - add fuel to the fire.

If I weren't prepared to support Spanberger, I would have more reservations about voting for Miyares at this point, but with Spanberger still likely assured of victory it's easier to accept the unfortunate reality that Jones has no business serving as AG.  I don't like a lot of Miyares' political positions, but he's not as reckless and obviously unsuited for public office as Jones has been revealed to be. [/quote]

If this is your position than you need to accept it’s going to be another four years of rolling over to Trump while Miyares harasses liberal organizations, colleges, and school districts with sham investigations that go nowhere. Don’t pretend. The AG decides what Virginia fights, and so far to date, the states that fight Trump win. Miyares is on the side of Trump and won’t defend Virginia. [/quote]

Exactly.

Miyares would continue to enable all of Trump’s insanity.

He won’t protect Virginians.

I'll take my chances with Miyares.  It is clear that Jones does not intend to protect Virginians.  Several examples here on this thread.  [/quote]

How has Miyares defended Virginians? Is it the expensive politically motivated investigations that went no where? The refusal to defend freedom of speech at Virginia universities? The refusal to stand up to illegal Trump Administration actions to withhold money we were entitled to, when other states stood up and won?

No, it’s not any of those. Miyares has done a pretty good job representing a small segment of weird white Christian men with trans obsession, but I can’t think of any other Virginian that has benefited from his leadership. His malfeasance has cost us a fortune. [/quote]

Please be specific.  If you mean going after LCPS and FCPS,  I fully support that.[/quote]

Good to know. I expect his office would have come up with something by now, but they don’t seem to very good at anything other than “investigating” and hyping up girl dads with closet pedo leanings. [/quote]
