Yep and he can't seem to point to any accomplishments or efforts to highlight which is why people aren't voting for him. He's a Clinton campaign hack and the last thing we need right now - straight liars.


Youngkin is a liar.

Did you vote for Princess?


So you say and no. It wasn't Youngkin's campaign that had party operatives standing out in the rain under opposition property trying to fabricate a falsehood. LIARS.



It was performance art to remind voters of the type of people who supports Youngkin, who is linked closely to Trump, the worst president in history.


Performance art? That's what you're calling it now? The McAuliffe campaign referred to it as 'disgusting and disqualifying' the day before. What changed?

It didn’t happen for Biden in 2020. Didn’t happen during the California recall. And now it’s not happening for McAulliffe.

I have no desire to attend a rally while my toddler is still unvaccinated. Meanwhile, I quietly make my donations around the country and cast my vote locally.

Keep thinking that rally size means anything. All it tells me is that those not worried about a pandemic support Youngkin. No shocker there.



LMFAO.


Ha? Have you seen any Democratic parties in the last two years? AOC, Kamala parting like crazy, but yes, they want their voters stay locked up in their basements.

Art my ass. It was an act of racism aimed to divide Virginia voters. These people know as much about art as Hunter Biden.

Exactly. “Both sides”.

And it wasn’t campaign staffers. You guys still owe them apologies.

No. It was democrats dressed up trying to spark racial division and hatred in a way that would benefit Mcauliff. Really shameful.

I’ll go a step further and say I think the national D party is throwing in the towel on Terry. They can read the tea leaves too and it’s not worth the risk of the precarious position of the D slim lead in the House going into ‘22 to fall on a sword for him.


What does that mean? How would they fall on a sword for him if they were actually interested? Honest question.


Biden, Kamala, Obama et al expend political capital when they actively campaign for local candidates. They all came out to rallies for Terry, Terry loses and it’s a big negative reflection on them because they are pegged with a loser. Yes, they were all here last week in a last ditch attempt to save him, but watch them all to run like cockroaches when the lights come on as soon as he really starts to tank. Not to mention, watch the money. Youngkin has pulled in more in the last 2 weeks than Terry has, by a substantial margin. That’s a real sign the party big wigs are giving up and moving on to another race.

Much as Trump's rallies scared loyal Democrats into voting, I think these pictures will do the same. I know much of the crowd for the Alexandria rally this morning was young GOP/Hill staffers who were ordered by their bosses to go.




Unlike the young Dem staffers who pretended to be neo Nazis standing in front of a Youngkin bus.


They weren’t staffers. They were working for Windsor.

You still owe those other people you falsely accused an apology.

What worries me about McAuliffe is that he personally has no principles, while the Democratic Party as a whole in Virginia has veered far left. I want checks and balances on the locals running school boards and that’s the last thing he’s going to provide - in fact, he owes his political career to the same types of hacks who elevate performative acts of wokeness over competence and a focus on the basics. Since the Democrats are likely to remain in control of the state House of Delegates, having someone to balance their influence is important. My vote goes to Youngkin.


Exactly. Mc will indulge the lunatic fringe currently at the helm of the Democratic Party. Also, though I never thought I’d favor things like school choice, the past year changed my mind. I really wanted (and want) an option other than my public school which obviously privileged every concern other than their main mission, educating students.

He is even going to make sure that affordable housing gets built where there is none now to help with this.

It’s bold, actually historic and when you read his plan you see he is serious!


Please say this is a troll post...


It reads like one, doesn't it?
But, I think pp is totally serious. Kind of frightening that there are people out there who value "equity" and "diversity" at the expense of competence and freedom.
Love the... "they will have to comply....." statement. Something straight out of some dictatorial regime.


Not to mention the “goes bye bye” comment. What an astute, literate phrase.

Can you share the name of local pollsters I should follow? I'd like some updates.

As for McAuliffe versus Youngkin - Youngkin just seems to have it together more, understand the needs of the populace better and is down to earth. Its weird to say but McAuliffe doesn't even seem like he lives in Virginia or has been here for the past two years. The man's a former Governor and no one seems to vibe with him, how is that even possible?

I like Herring and my local House delegate, who is D. Really sick of McAuliffe and Ayala seems like a total lightweight.

As an independent, I'm interested in Ayala. I don't like Youngkin or McAuliffe and Sears is pro-life and anti-vax, which I cannot agree with. I like Ayala.
