Related: About this forumSeriously? THIS Is Who Ken Cuccinelli Is Campaigning With to Conclude His Campaign?!?
With just over 3 days to go until Virginians vote for their next governor, Ken Cuccinelli - trailing in all the polls - is going 100% for the strategy of firing up his far-right-wing extremist "base." Lovely, eh?

I was astonished at all the support for him when he ran for attorney general.

(23,340 posts)I know what the polls say, but I am nervous about enough Dems showing up to vote, the only poll that counts.
If Cuccinelli goes down, it will be a huge blow to the tea baggers nationally. He is such a poster child for them.

(27,315 posts)Other "mainstream" Republicans do not want to be seen with him, so he is left with the crazy and the ambitious like Rubio.

(2,902 posts)That race is very close. Gov and Lt Gov races are likely over with Dems winning but they hope to salvage the AG race with Cuccinelli II (Obenshain). There's no 3rd party for the AG race.

(30,250 posts)He's a Tea Partier. Those folks are all popular with the extreme Right. he knows that he's probably toast, so he needs the T.P. bunch to come out and vote in droves (hopefully there are not enough of them to make a difference).
