McDonnell for governor Date published: 10/25/2009
THE 2009 Virginia governor's Hearing nothing inspiring from either hopeful, the citizen must assay personal attributes. So: Mr. McDonnell, the former attorney general and legislator, has worked harder. He has devised a detailed plan for everything short of setting out your azaleas and flossing. State Sen. Deeds has produced no such library and, on the main issue, mobility, aims to convene a bipartisan commission. For success, he would need a bipartisan legislature. He wouldn't have it, especially after his mucky campaign. Mr. McDonnell is articulate, certainly a virtue in leadership (recall George W. Bush's chronic incoherence and its incurred cost in popular support). Mr. Deeds is not a confident speaker, giving the impression that he is confused by complexity or fears candor. Also, Mr. McDonnell is more positive. He has run his share of absurd attack ads, but, unlike his rival, hasn't made vilification a campaign theme. Executive capacity? Mr. McDonnell not only proficiently ran the A.G.'s office, but also, after serving four years on active duty, retired as a lieutenant colonel in the Army Reserve. Mr. Deeds lacks this command pedigree. And consider how the candidates have changed. A socially moderate lawmaker, Mr. Deeds, perhaps to better contrast himself with the scholar of Regent University, has adopted the fringe-feminist view of abortion--it is all about the woman, buster!--and pandered to the gender-obsessed by pledging a Cabinet half-female. Mr. McDonnell recently flipped a position, too--but for the better. He now favors (like Mr. Deeds) a "scientific" redistricting plan to end the gerrymandering that protects the majority party and incumbents from the horrors of democracy. A governorship lasts four years. Our view is that Mr. McDonnell would wear better and do more for Virginia. We endorse him to lead our state.
Do you think you could possible swith up the prime rib for pit cooked, pulled BBQ about three or four times a year. As well, please establish a doctor's office that will write precriptions for the medical herbs for any reason. Get that taken care of, and I am onboard! You could be the best thing that ever happened to this State!!!
I love your last post. From what I gathered, you voted Republican your entire life, got sick of them obviously, then voted for a Democrat that has been in office for 10 months and now you are through. Whew, that is some kind of roller coaster ride. Sounds like you may have been a "bit more patient" with the GOP. Anway, have a good day.
I made that mistake once. Won't do it again.
The tax on MEDICAL pot will be zero. and for the uninsured who cannot easily get a presdcription it will be $1.00.
Any voter who reads my promises and has a relative who is a government worker and votes for me will see an increase in the relative's paycheck. I promise to incorporate everyones ideas and also to put prime rib in every pot. For vegetarians I promise veges so clean and healthy you don't even have to wash them. My produce inspectors will burn down any supermarket that sells bad veges.
Kspecial, you are willing to sell Virginia for the federal teat. How very liberal and typical of you. Disappointing, but typical. Evidently Deeds agrees with you and will suck up to the Obamesiah and George Soros to belly up to the trough.
