No? Didn’t think so.

The Democrats have been giving Ken Cuccinelli a lot of crap over his campaign to sue the Federal Government. Let’s send them a message! Sign Ken Cuccinelli’s petition to stop the mandate.

Wow. Loudoun County Democratic Committee Chairman Tim Buchholz slams “extremist” Senator Ken Cuccinelli and “his tea bagger friends” and promotes a Fairfax Democratic Committee member’s letter that talks about “Virginia’s shameful past,” saying Cuccinelli’s support for state’s rights translates to a pro-slavery platform.

Buchholz endorses this view and misspells a word, saying the letter puts Cuccinelli and the tea party activists into “historic prespective [sic].”

“Tea bagger” is a crude sexual term.

Lu Ann McNabb also claims Nazi flags “predominate at gun shows” and says Cuccinelli must be opposed so that Virginia does not return to the pro-slavery “worldview that we abandoned a long time ago.”

UPDATE: I’ve put in a request for a response from Steve Shannon’s campaign, asking them four questions. I’ll post their response as soon as I receive it.

Is it Steve Shannon’s opinion that gun shows in Virginia are predominated by Nazi sympathizers?

Is it Steve Shannon’s opinion that Ken Cuccinelli represents pro-slavery, or pro-Confederate, sentiments?

Does Steve Shannon believe it is acceptable to refer to Tea Party grassroots activists with a term that describes a crude sex act?

Will your campaign call for Chairman Tim Buchholz and Committeewoman McNabb to resign for spreading and promoting such inflammatory and offensive hate speech?

Dear _______,

The following was written by Lu Ann McNabb who is on the Sully Democratic Committee in Fairfax. I think it brings Sen. Cuccinelli and his tea bagger friends into historic prespective. Read and then click here to forward to all of your VA friends.

On Tuesday, vote for Steve Shannon over this extremist.

Sincerely,

Tim Buchholz
Chairman
Loudoun County Democratic Committee

Yesterday, my husband and I drove to Charlottesville to watch UVA succumb to Duke but that’s another story. On Route 29, we passed a flagpole with the “Don’t Tread On Me” flag flying with the Confederate flag. As many of you know, State Senator Ken Cuccinelli has adopted “Don’t Tread On Me” as his motto. But those two flags together symbolize Virginia’s shameful past- one of bigotry and intolerance. I can appreciate Mr. Cuccinelli’s defiance against the federal government by stating he will fight for state’s rights, but let us remember that it was the federal National Guard who protected the black students walking in to schools and universities from angry, screaming crowds. It was the federal Supreme Court who declared segregated schools as unconstitutional and the federal Justice Department that denied tax exemptions to churches who only allowed white children to attend their classes. It was also the federal Supreme Court that overturned Virginia’s law disallowing mixed couples to marry. And it was the Congress that gave African-American citizens the right to sit anywhere and have full voting rights.

Let us not forget what the Confederate flag stood for – and I say this as a great-great-great granddaughter of a Confederate who fought in the Alabama regiment and whose cousin owns his musket and sword. And let us be wary of these two flags that predominate at gun shows, along with the Nazi flag, representing a belief that we should not enact commonsense gun laws because for some reason background checks interferes with one’s freedom to own a gun. At the same time, these flags reflect a belief that supports governmental interference in the most personal decisions one can make.

More importantly, the pairings of those two flags symbolizes to me what is at stake in this election-whether we remain a moderate state with elected officials who will solve problems or return to a state with a worldview that we abandoned a long time ago.

Bob appeared on Laura Ingraham’s radio show on Tuesday to discuss jobs and the economy. He also promised to use the power of the veto pen to ensure Virginia’s tax dollars are not used to fund Planned Parenthood or abortion.

Today the Washington Times endorsed Ken Cuccinelli for Attorney General.  It is one of the best cases for Ken Cuccinelli.

State Sen. Ken Cuccinelli of Fairfax is the right candidate for attorney general of Virginia. He doesn’t speak in poll-tested sound bites or generalities, he doesn’t float with the political wind, and he takes on substantive issues even if they promise him no personal, political benefit. More important still, the actual substance of his record and positions is excellent. We enthusiastically endorse his candidacy.

According to the latest WaPo poll, the entire GOP ticket in VA is widening their lead against the Dems in all three of the major races. BillBolling.com is reporting: “McDonnell leads 53 to 44 percent among likely voters, expanding on the four-point lead he held in mid-September. Deeds’s advantage with female voters has all but disappeared and McDonnell has grown his already wide margin among independents. Deeds, a state senator from western Virginia, is widely seen by voters as running a negative campaign, a finding that might indicate his aggressive efforts to exploit McDonnell’s 20-year-old graduate thesis are turning voters away. Republicans are also well positioned to sweep the other two statewide races, with Bill Bolling and Ken Cuccinelli each holding identical 49 to 40 percent leads over Democrats Jody Wagner and Steve Shannon for lieutenant governor and attorney general.”

Obviously this is great news for conservatives across the state, with the election a mere three weeks away! In addition to the increase in the GOP lead, Bill Bolling was recently endorsed by the Hampton Roads Chamber of Commerce, a significant addition to his already staggering amount of endorsements for the Lt. Governors re-election.

For more information, see the article below, and also be sure to visit BobMcDonnell, and BillBolling.com

RICHMOND – The Bolling for Lieutenant Governor campaign today announced the Hampton Roads Chamber of Commerce has given its endorsement to Lieutenant Governor Bill Bolling’s re-election campaign.  Hampton Roads Business PAC (HRBizPAC) is a non-partisan committee that presses for action on issues impacting business and supports candidates who share those views.

“I am honored to receive the endorsement of the Hampton Roads Business PAC. This endorsement is a reflection of my longstanding commitment to make certain that Virginia remains a business friendly state.  Virginia’s economy is struggling, and I have offered a detailed plan to get our economy moving again.” said Bolling. “That’s the kind of leadership Virginia’s business leaders are looking for, and that’s the kind of leadership I have provided and will provide as Virginia’s Lieutenant Governor.”

Jack Hornbeck, CCE, Hampton Roads Chamber of Commerce President and CEO said, “The Hampton Roads Business PAC, a public policy committee of the Hampton Roads Chamber of Commerce, is pleased to endorse Bill Bolling for election to Lieutenant Governor of the Commonwealth of Virginia. The HRBizPAC carefully considered incumbent voting records and a comprehensive questionnaire on key policy issues to evaluate the candidates.  Bill Bolling’s solid support on issues of importance to the business community was key to his receiving this endorsement.”

In a McDonnell/Bolling administration, Bolling will serve as Virginia’s Chief Jobs Creation Officer.  He has put forth a detailed Jobs for Virginians program that is designed to get Virginia’s economy moving again and create jobs.  By providing tax credits to businesses creating jobs in Virginia, reducing the regulatory burden on businesses and investing in proven economic development and job creation programs, we will position Virginia now for a future economic recovery.

Hampton Roads Business PAC joins the Virginia Chapter of the Association of Builders and Contractors, National Federation of Independent Business/ Virginia, Virginia Association of Realtors PAC, Virginia Farm Bureau Federation AgPAC, Virginia Credit Union League, Fraternal Order of Police, Police Benevolent Association and the National Rifle Association – PVF in supporting Bolling’s re-election.

The Hampton Roads Chamber represents 2,500 member firms that employ nearly 300,000 working men and women and extends its programs to 17 cities and counties in Southeastern Virginia.

I received an email today from the campaign manager for Stephens Miller, candidate for delegate in the 86th District:

Our campaign just received some really exciting news and I want to share it with you first. The group “Progressive Kicks” has endorsed Stevens and decided to assist by matching contributions! All you have to do to DOUBLE your contribution is go to their Act Blue page virginiaprogressive, type in the amount you wish to donate next to Stevens’s picture and fill out the contribution information. All of the proceeds will go directly to our campaign and will be DOUBLED by Progressive Kicks!

If you visit the Act Blue page, you’ll see that Progressive Kick is funding Margi Vanderhye, challenger of Barbara Comstock in the 34th, John Bell, challenger of Bob Marshall in the 13th, and Peggy Frank, challenger of Dave Nutter in the 7th.

This means that Stephens Miller, Margi Vanderhye, John Bell, and Peggy Frank join the likes of ACORN as beneficiaries of George Soros.

Yes, Progressive Kick is funded in large part by the radical leftist billionaire. Soros has funded ACORN, and he has also donated a least $27,500 to Progressive Kick.

Another large PK donor ($25k) is Linda Pritzker, a billionaire who has contributed over $4 million to MoveOn.org.

Another interesting nugget: PK is based out of Berkeley, CA. Apparently, Stephens Miller and the rest of this radical liberal cabal is proud and “excited” that they will be bringing Nancy Pelosi-like values to Northern Virginia.

We’ll see if the voters agree in less than a month.

From Crystal Clear Conservative:

Last night, the Prince William Committee of 100 held a debate featuring Attorney General candidates Ken Cuccinelli and Steve Shannon.  However, it appeared that Steve Shannon had some difficulties answering a question, and Greg over at Black Velvet Bruce Li caught some good footage of this question, in addition to a similar question by a member of the media.

This is where the real fun began. As Greg was taping this particular question, a campaign staffer, who works for Shannon, came up and started hitting the camera, demanding who Greg was, then started taking flash photography thinking that this would damage the tape.

Here’s the video:

Gubernatorial candidate Bob McDonnell  still enjoys a healthy lead over Democrat Creigh Deeds. The last three polls cited by Real Clear Politics, from Rasmussen, SurveyUSA, and PPP, show McDonnell with leads of 9, 14, and 5, respectively. All three polls were of likely voters, and show that Virginians are not buying Deeds’ paper-thin campaign built on self-contradictions and lying about Bob McDonnell’s character and record. Hey Creigh, I’d tell you to start panicking, but you have already.

Creigh Deeds offered these statements after the debate on how he would fund transportation.  This sure seems though as if he has no clue what he is talkign about, has no plan, and is contradicting himself.  If you can’t clearly articulate your plan on crucial issues like transportation funding why are you even running?

In early September, e-mails came out that seemed to indicate Delegate Phil Hamilton funneled state money to Old Dominion University in exchange for a job. Steve Shannon immediately called on Phil Hamilton to resign, and called on Cuccinelli to do the same. He even began running radio ads in the Norfolk are going after Cuccinelli for not calling on Phil Hamilton to resign.
