Yea. And in NOVA no less. Meanwhile Terry’s rally in Alexandria yesterday consisted of 20 people standing in the rain. Until it was canceled, of course, as the candidate scrambled to deal with his latest self inflicted crisis


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.


Wow - you're really twisting yourself into a pretzel to come across as blase and unconcerned. You can stop posting fake anecdotes. No one believes you.

Fast forward to today, CNN runs a story “McAuliffe says this election is not about Trump” (I guess they have figured it out by now).


McAuliffe is floundering. He doesn't have a coherent message for Virginians. He is running a national campaign and is just unable to relate to the people in the state in which he wants to govern.
He truly is a horrible candidate. I hope Youngkin pulls out a really convincing win. Virginia deserves better than a slimy swamp master like McAuliffe.


I don’t need it to be convincing. As long as he wins the popular vote by +4,000 I could care less.

Teachers' unions are not experts. Teachers unions are out to promote themselves--not the teachers and not the schools, and definitely not the students.

Oh yeah? Where do you teach? In a public school system, or some kind of unaccredited bible-thumper private? I’m betting the latter based on your absurd post. It reads like typical anti-union trash talking points.


Union teachers are the only bulwark standing between society and the brainwashed spawn being raised and indoctrinated by their rightwing loon parents. If it weren’t for public school teachers offsetting all these idiot parents and their lunacy, we’d be up to our eyeballs in school age little fascists. Teachers are typically the only people exposing these kids to Progressive ideals and questioning the nonsense these children are being fed at home.


Assuming you aren't a troll, you are part of the problem. Many parents don't want teachers indoctrinating/pushing political ideologies in a public school classroom.


If you think teaching facts and kindness is a “political ideology” then private is probably a good choice for you.


You're right. My kid goes to a non religious private school in another country (we are from DC but husband is on a temp assignment) and he has a "values" class once a week. It's great actually- they teach basics like honesty, respect, responsibility, perseverance, flexibility, empathy, etc, ALL without some stupid "Progressive" lens that teaches kids to hate each other.


+100
Happy to have my kids taught all of the above - at school and at home. No "equity/racial bias" lens needed.

Getting rid of masks without having a large portion of the school vaccinated will create chaos. Parents better remember that.


There is zero evidence of that. Witness Florida, where kids haven’t worn masks for more than a year- lowest Covid rate in the country. At my kids’ DC school they’ve gotten pretty soft on mask enforcement- kids pull them down or even off all had time and no one sets a word. Total Covid cases this school year- 1, in September

Gee, that’s totally not a leading-question, is it?

Garbage poll. Worthless.


Its the reason Youngkin is winning. Its everything.


Hedgefund Hero *isn’t* winning, Bubba.


Really? Where is Terry today? Seriously- is he even campaigning any more?


Google “McAuliffe Events See Small Crowds Days Before Virginia Election.”


OMG, you’ve made me laugh multiple times. Ha Ha. I recognize the smart, witty posters here.

DP. If you think telling kids they're all a part of "systemic racism," then you are not kind, nor do you believe in facts.

McAuliffe reminds me of DCUM Democrats - always invoking "Trump!!" because they have nothing else. Move on.
