#4 And let's not forget, they were relying on Bath House Barry's "coattails" more than Joe's, which are tucked in his pants since his bathroom malfunction in Rome.

#5 Reports suggest a late night McAuliffe call to Biden were not answered. I think the Obamas denied the steal to McAuliffe (at least initially) and the last of the Clintonista's is forced to sink or swim on his own.

#6 Looks like Bath House couldn't fool enough voters with his Big Lie about the "myth" of the Loudoun Co. schoolgirl's rape by a dude-in-a-dress.

Maybe the Lightbringer no longer brings it?

#9 Over at Insty -



Q. Why did the Dems lose in Virginia?

A. The fake ballots were printed in China and they’re all still stuck on a ship waiting in LA harbor!

#10 I think the R side will have the Guv, LtGuv and Att Gen as well as a 51-49 margin in the House of Delegates.

Still Northern VA stuck with the D, although by reduced margins.

#13 #2 Hopefully that psychopath McAuliffe will take his ill-gotten graft and disappear.

He will, full of hope indeed, reappear soon enough.

So many grifting opportunities in a $1.75 trillion spending bill that will actually cost $3.5 trillion.

Endless opportunities for a lifelong master of the game like McAwful.

#14 
Republican Glenn Youngkin's victory in Virginia's governor's election Tuesday night has nailed a handful nails in Pelosi's coffin.

President Biden and Socialist-Democrats will need to figure out a new way to steal elections for 2024.

#15 I would not count McAwful out until all the late mail-in ballots are counted - they have all week as long as they were postmarked by yesterday (presumably even illegible postmarks are ok.)

#17 I guess that means he gets to keep any leftover campaign funds rather than spending them contesting.

#18 McAuliffe probably realized with minimal support from Brandon Administration and facing a 50/50 split in the Virginia legislature that it probably would be a pretty painful term as Governor.

#19 Bigger/better grifting opptys in DC and NYC. Don't even need paints or easels.

#20 I suspect the discussion among the dem "brain-trust" will be "Another lockdown. The beatings must be doubled down upon until morale improves!"

#21 50/50 split is not 51/48 with one outstanding. GOP barely controls the Virginia legislature as well as every major position that was on the ballot. No wonder McAuliffe didn't fight and steal to stay in power.

#22 #11: exactly! that's why the central government should be located near Kansas City. Leave all the tourist attractions in DC but move the politics.

#24 If we want separation of the powers, let's separate the powers: Move the House to Del Rio, Texas; the Senate to downtown Minneapolis; the Supreme Court to Des Moines. As for the White House...
