Alan Moore of the DC Examiner recently did a profile of each of the three Republicans in the race to succeed AG-elect Ken Cuccinelli; Chairman Tim Kaine recently set the date of the general election to Tuesday, January 12th. Here are some excerpts from Moore’s articles:

Let me start out by saying that I cannot stand Hillary Clinton. But the Dems would have been much better off strategically if they had picked Hillary to be their nominee. There was no way any GOP candidate was going to win that election with GWB hanging around their necks. [...]
I’ve been back to sorting through the never-ending streams of blog spam and more than a few real comments that get caught in our spam filter (sorry to those of you who get caught up – this thing never seems to learn who is real and who is an a-hole [...]
Amy Gardner is out with a report that doesn’t really report much—just that Pat Herrity, who barely lost a county-wide special election to fill Rep. Gerry Connolly’s seat, may be seeking again to replace Connolly, this time in Congress. Ever since Herrity’s near-win, speculation about [...]
More drama to deal with when they should be looking for spending cuts! Unlike the BOS, where the At-Large member is the Chairman, the School Board elects its Chairman from among its nine members. Robert DuPree has apparently had enough of taking the brunt of criticism and will not seek [...]
Can’t the conservative PR gurus do better than lightweights like Joe the Plumber and Carrie Pre-Billy-Jean??? Joel McHale gives her The Soup treatment after her ridiculous performance on fossiliferous Larry King’s show. Earlier in a segment they made fun of her for saying how thrilled she was when she “meeted” [...]
Less than two weeks after being narrowly elected to an open seat, Mark Keam is already showing his true partisan stripes. Consider this twitter exchange:
Â
Keam: After Freshman orientation this morning, Gov. Kaine spoke to Caucus. We’re going to miss him and his leadership. Thanks for 4 great years!
Â
How many Kings, Emperors and other potentates is Obama going to make his obeisance before? Does anyone else find it as galling as I do to see the leader of the free world groveling before royalty?
.
Apparently the Emperor of Japan bows to no one, but [...]
NLS had a great post today blasting our part-time Governor Tim Kaine for jetting off to sunny Arkansas while declaring an emergency here in Virginia. And of course the Dem partisans take to blasting NLS for daring to mention impeachment, which Kaine probably deserves at this point. Just as [...]
Clueless Lowell Feld will obviously continue to vainly try to unseat our beloved Congressman Frank Wolf (link here to his little read blog post- Blue Virginia, Lowell? Obviously not!). It looks like his hero Judy Feder is finally giving up and we’ll have three other unknowns [...]
This morning, Attorney General Eric Holder announced that Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and four other 9/11 terrorist plotters will be tried in New York in U.S. District Court. This is a major reversal from the Bush Administration’s plan to try KSM and others detained at Gitmo through military tribunals.

UPDATE: The Firehouse Primary for the GOP nomination will be Tuesday, December 1st, from 6:00 p.m. – 10:00 p.m. at Centreville High School, 6001 Union Mill Road in Clifton, VA. Meanwhile, the current talk is that Ken Cuccinelli will wait until mid-January to resign his Senate seat.

UPDATE: TPM has an interview she gave with Michael Smerconish where she explains her ideology.
She discusses robo-calls against her calling her a “homo-lover” and “child-killer”. Unacceptable.
I find her interview to be down-to earth and reasonable.
For the second time in a month the Loudoun School Board will be meeting in closed session today at 5:30 to discuss the Superintendent’s contract (see the announcement here).  That announcement says no action is anticipated, so I guess they’ll have more of these meetings. Does anyone trust anything these people do, or [...]
Speaker Pelosi proudly announced a Veterans Day event in the paper, then wouldn’t let people in…
What happened to transparency?
 I saw former Delegate David Poisson’s website mentioned in this post by NLS as an example of one post-election Dem website that is acutally somewhat current. His message to his followers is pretty pathetic, and his half-hearted statement on negative campaigning is such BS. Come [...]

Chatter is growing among activists in Virginia concerning the race to replace Senator Cuccinelli.
Democrats seem poised to support Del. Dave Marsden, but other floated names include Janet Oleszek and Lou Ann McNabb. While [...]
Thanks to the Supreme Court, and barring some kind of last minute, midnight stay from DNC Chairman Tim Kaine, John Allan Muhammad will be executed tonight by lethal injection at the Greensville Correctional Facility in Jarratt, Virginia.

While the death penalty still remains controversial, there is little doubt that [...]
Some examples here, here, and here.

UPDATE:Â Â This was the post sent to me by a reader I meant [...]
Last night, the House of Representatives passed their version of Obamacare, on a 220-215 vote. While the bill stands little chance of passing the Senate, there’s a bigger problem we all must deal with:
.
A Republican voted for it.
.
Yes. A Republican. There’s a RINO in the ranks! [...]
WaPo reports that both Janet Oleszek and Del. David Bulova are both out of the running for AG-elect Ken Cuccinelli’s Springfield-based Senate seat; Olesek because Democrats forced her aside in favor of someone able to speak in complete sentences and Bulova likely because his House [...]
The big winners are Glen Caroline and Tag Greason. Caroline kept together an often fractuous LCRC with his constant focus on nuts and bolts. But what would you expect from a grassroots professional? He was a firm and consistent leader with a single minded focus on winning [...]
You knew I’d go there….
It’s a legitimate question, what do you think? Hear me out for a minute…
On one hand we have Dede Scozzafava: a ten year State Assemblywoman, and previous Mayor, who had years of legislative experience. She had a [...]

He just can’t keep his mouth shut.

Good luck trying not to barf when reading about him “toweling off”. He may hate Bob McDonnell, but EVERYONE knows who won that battle. By a HUGE margin.
Â

Today begins the obligatory months long discussion of what the elections of 2009 mean. If you’ve watched any of the news channels today, you’ve already seen a hefty amount of it.
.
After hearing all of the talking heads and reading the results in Virginia, there are few things that I [...]
1. Bob McDonnell
Â
This is a no-brainer. We’ve been hearing for the past several years that, while Virginia is a “purple” state, Fairfax is a “blue” county, and Republicans would be lucky to get 45% here. There was a big movement after Obama got 60% of the vote here to sweep [...]
I am soooooo hung over. Ugh. But happy, especially for Tag Greason who beat the crap out of poisonous Poisson. Great victory party last night with margins of victory beyond anyone’s wildest dreams. The GOP ticket and the delegates CRUSHED in Loudoun. So much for the ‘Loudoun is Now Blue’ [...]
In Richmond at the Marriott where it’s a press circus. All the big networks are here, and people are already in the ballroom.
We will be turning on a live stream RIGHT when polls close here.
A few down-race predictions….we pickup: LeMunyon, Comstock, Greason, and [...]
1. Creigh Deeds – The top of the ticket, and what a disaster he’s been. Unfocused, practically incoherent at times, and bitter, bitter, bitter. He’s done in statewide politics.
2. Tim Kaine – He’s sooooo popular his fans say. Bullshit. Incumbent (part time) governor and DNC Chair lets his home state become [...]
The campaign launched www.bob4va.com tonight, which will become the GOTV and election night center online for all things McDonnell.
Tomorrow night’s speech in Richmond will be live streamed on the site. I hope to see many of you in Richmond tomorrow.Please stay tuned there as I’ll be blogging Bob’s [...]
Think of extremists, Ken Cuccinelli or Bob Marshall [...]
I can’t believe the Dems let this guy go forward unchallenged for their AG nomination. What an awful candidate who has run a positively awful campaign. The guy looks like he’s just out of college, not projecting any sort of authority you would expect from an AG. [...]
An interesting video I found of Dede from yesterday……just wonder why she endorsed Owens…disappointing!
Also, in an effort to learn more about who these candidates are beyond the media stories...this is a bumpersticker from Doug Hoffman’s car……
Interesting.
Stevens Miller just won’t stop….his campaign is now distributing doorhangers with the wrong polling place information in the Town of Herndon. Amazing.
Check out the doorhanger above from Herndon’s #3 precinct with clearly the wrong polling information.
Here is the state law a democrat passed on distributing incorrect [...] 
McDonnell, Bolling and Cuccinelli aren’t conservative enough for that twerp? So glad to see he has victory on his mind at this late stage in the game. Moron.
His final prediction thread here. Slight lean Republican, but I think the tide is even stronger for LeMunyon and Greason.
[...]
This morning was the final big campaign rally in Fairfax at Interstate Van Lines. My wife and I joined a huge crowd of Republicans out in Springfield at Interstate Van Lines for the customary rally, followed by a day of working the phones, hitting the pavement [...]
Blogging from me will be light here, as I take to Bob’s campaign blog on his tour across the state.
Keep up with where he is here, and have a happy Halloween!
