Virginia Governor’s Race Still Terrible

The Virginia governor’s race is heating up, and… oh look, Creigh Deeds is still getting his ass kicked. What to do now? Maybe just start acting like the Republican candidate, since the Republican one is doing so well! Here are a bunch of “real Americans” telling us such things as: “I know Creigh Deeds, and he opposes that cap-and-trade bill.” That devil-bill. [Ben Smith]

    What’s this feller Deed’s stand on Hate Crimes. Because I’ll vote for anyone wants more of them.

    Finally. Alfred “Dickhead in a pool” Paxton, exposed.

    For some reason, I keep thinking that this Alfred Paxton is going to christen me Mr. Pink, explaining that Mr. Purple is a name he gave to a guy on another job.

  4. I think editing the banjo music was a big mistake.

    norbizness: Be thankful you’re not Mr. Yellow.

    This campaign was fatally flawed from the beginning, handicapped by a name which sounds like a combo of a late-night TV real estate scammer & satellite jesus huckster. He’d have a chance if he’d change his name to Frank Jones or Bill “Beaver” Cranston. Either of those & he’s a shoo-in.

    I’d vote for a liberal — or even just a Democrat — if there was one running.

  8. Extemporanus says at 1:42 pm, October 23rd, 2009

    bitchincamaro: That’s the biggest fucking Baby Ruth I’ve ever seen.

    I’m Larry the Cable Guy, and I approved this message.

  10. Aaahhh … the classic, “Jes’ cuz I’m a Democrat don mean I ain’t a stoopid redneck y’all.” It worked for Bill Clinton.

    “I know Creigh Deeds, and he did not totally fuck himself over in this election” would probably be a better campaign message.

    It was all over the day Terry McAuliffe endorsed Deeds. The reverse-Midas Touch — Terry’s still got it!

  13. Don’t tell any of these folks about McDonald’s college essay or they will change their votes.

    Extemporanus: “Floaterrrrrr!”

    Squeel… squeel lahk a peeg, boy! Aunt Bea approves.

  16. Let Me Wet My Beak says at 2:44 pm, October 23rd, 2009

    Hell, I know ol’ Creigh, and he don’t even believe in that global warming bullshit.

  17. vladster says at 3:35 pm, October 23rd, 2009

    pass the crawdads

    If you can’t beat a Regent U grad, you must really suck. Doesn’t say much for Virginia either.

  19. PoignancySelz says at 3:56 pm, October 23rd, 2009

    I know Creigh Deeds would never sell the Liquor Stores.
    McDonnell’s message: sell the Liquor stores, subjugate women, cut taxes on the rich, more troops, always wear a tie, Catholicism –Fuck YEAH.
    And we all know who wanted to buy the Liquor stores from the Weimar Republic….

    The shortage of views and comments here reflects our desire that the state of Virginia just go away.

  21. DC Hates Me says at 9:30 pm, October 23rd, 2009

    Fuck Virginia, they deserve the worst candidates. I hated living in that truck stop called VA. Even NoVA is a shithole of boring, half-assed, moderate scum whom no one should ever care about. We should sell that fucking state to Saudi Arabia. They’d do a better job of running it than these crapheads.

    Ah, yes, the “Out-redneck the redneck” Southern Democratic strategy. Maybe, one day, Southern Democractic candidates will get that not only don’t Southern moderates and Republicans buy this, but it offends actual Democrats.
