[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]ENOUGH!  You women beating up on another woman who has taken on a very difficult job has got to stop.  [b]Men don't behave this way about other candidates[/b].  This is not adult behavior. Your comments are infantile.  Some of us were undecided before.  After reading this childish display of picking, picking, picking for an election that is 13 months away, I am definitely voting for Comstock.[/quote]

NP here.

Have you never paid attention to a single political campaign, ever, in the history of politics?

Yes, Barbara Comstock (I do call her "Babs" because I was under the impression that it was her nickname.  If it not, I will stop using it) has taken on a very difficult job.  However she has, since taking it, not been open with her constituents at all.  She replies to calls, letters, emails with form letters.  She won't hold a town hall.  Oh, and she is a public figure, she signed herself up for this.  She isn't someone who got thrown into the public eye with no knowledge.

That aside, she is all optics.  She claims to be a "champion for women" with her photo ops with high school girls, and her intern programs and such, but her voting record speaks a very different story.

She does not seem to care about the interests of her constituents, rather the interests of her donors and her fellow members of Congress.  That is why I am not a fan of Comstock and am not planning to vote for her in 2018.  Not because she is a Republican.  Not because she votes with Trump nearly *all* of the time. But because she doesn't seem to care about her constituents and what matters to us.

Who I will vote for is to be decided, as there are many, many, many candidates who have expressed an interest in running.  But it will certainly be someone I trust cares about me and my family.  And Barbara Comstock just isn't that person.[/quote]
