re: #45 Targetpractice

Hampton Roads has been pretty red for a long while. You might have heard of my former rep here in the 2nd District, a shitstain by the name of Scott Taylor. He lost his office during the ‘18 wave election in part because word got out in the weeks before the election that his office had been caught trying to get a third party candidate on the ballot to split the Dem vote. Then he made noises in ‘19 that he’d run against Tim Kaine, only to then decide (probably due to poor polling) to try and fail to get back his old seat by riding Trump’s (non-existent) coattails.

Realistically, it should be remembered that McAuliffe was pretty much counted out the first time he ran for the governor’s mansion, with all the talk about how he was “boring” compared to the charismatic dynamo that was Ken “Cucci” Cuccinelli. And that election was projected to be a nail-biter as well, with a lot of pundits predicting Cucci would win on a platform of abortion bans and race-baiting.

I like your viewpoint much more than what I am seeing. That’s for certain!
