Last week, a handful of reporters and editors swung by the campaign headquarters for a chat. Mr. Cuccinelli entered to see most of the visitors in suits. “Sorry I didn’t wear a tie,” he said. But he was wearing a tie; he wasn’t wearing a jacket. An odd opening.

Over the next hour, the flagging candidate would dryly run through his campaign platform planks, each less interesting than the last. He wants to create jobs, jobs, jobs; offers a billion-dollar tax cut; plans to streamline government; is “pro-liberty”; has an anti-drone policy (for some reason).

But the more he spoke, the more he seemed surprised by his lack of success in a state that is still more red than purple, despite two wins by Barack Obama. And he seemed shocked by the mendacious campaign of his opponent — absolutely shocked.

“They’ve pounded the bejabbers out of me with a lot more money,” he offered. “Doesn’t matter if they’re telling the truth — they frequently don’t. I’ve never seen lying like I’ve seen in this race. And, you know, how do you deal with that?”

Like many Republicans before him, he blamed the media. “Their campaign puts out lies, it gets reported, and once it’s reported, it looks like a fact to voters. So, at that point, it becomes very hard to undo,” he said. The media “is the filter through which people learn about the race. Fair or unfair, that’s just the reality.” Uh, yeah.

The telegenic 45-year-old also blamed the federal shutdown for distracting voters from the gubernatorial race, but promised that late October will bring a “rush of attention.”

“And it’s all in minds. You don’t see it anywhere — it’s not like more cars on the street, more water in the pipe. It’s just in voters’ minds, one at a time.” Um, OK.

Yeah, I read that. You forgot the part about the stale donuts and sad office space. You have to wonder if Cucinnelli has Asperger's (no offense to aspies) or is just hopelessly clueless.

Telegenic???

This man is a mook.

Google it, you wanking sod!

It's DIRGE, you pinhead!

Article summarized:

Kooch is going to lose.

It's because of terrible partisan media spin.

Encapsulated in an article that falls just short of Chicken Little in describing what will happen if Mac wins.

Because that's not partisan media spin.


This lack of ability to grasp glaring, ridiculous hypocrisy is what is killing the Republican party. The majority of the country sees through this bullshit and recognizes it for what it is. The only reason Republicans have the House right now is because they've spent the last 10 years redrawing their districts to mathematically lock them in & purging voter rolls because of "rampant voter fraud" that no one can show actually exists.

Desperate idiot politicians.

.. and to top off the ridiculous nature of this whole article, if you post a comment pointing out that the article is nothing but partisan media spin, they delete your comment.

Guess they only like the ones that compare this to Hitler. Republicans sure do love 'em some Hitler huh?

Wack jobs.

And this article is from The Washington Times? The paper that thinks Fox News is a bunch of liberal commie bastards. Amazing.
