BACKGROUND:
Democrats have a lead in the Virginia governor’s race but regardless as you can see in Washington winning at the top of the ticket is not enough to ensure progress. And considering that Democrats lost the governor’s race in 2009 by 18 POINTS and the GOP’s recent efforts to purge voters in the state nothing should be taken for granted: http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2013/oct/13/virginia-democrats-fight-purge-of-voter-rolls-orde/#ixzz2hi4BFRB3
Republicans won’t get the message in Washington until they see the Tea Party CRUSHED at the polls by losing for Governor, Lt Governor, Attorney General and the House of Delegates in a battleground state with what could be THE FIRST WIN BY A GOVERNOR OF THE SAME PARTY AS THE PRESIDENT IN 40 YEARS!
Paul Begala says this could send shockwaves that help Democratic candidate recruitment and grassroots support for 2014….so get involved below and bring a friend!
WASHINGTON POST ENDORSEMENTS:
Terry McAuliffe for Governor
Ralph Northam for Lt. Governor & Mark Herring for Attorney General

(if these anti-women, anti-LGBT AND anti-Jobs candidates come anywhere close to winning then the Tea Party lives on)
