Maybe this will be the thing to actually doom McAuliffe despite all cheating. If anyone can turn gold into feces, it's Sparklefarts. Usually, his endorsement is the kiss of death.

So Stinky is getting stumpy... Will Virginians be swayed? Probably. Will it be enough to slide McAuliffe back into position, though?

I wouldn’t say it’s a bellwether election. McAwful is a terrible person and was a terrible governor but Northern Virginia has been overtaken by economic refugees from New York and New Jersey and immigrants from the 3rd World so he will most likely win. However Youngkin will keep it close. Notice that the Clintons aren’t campaigning- Bill is laying low until the mini series ends.

If the surgeons can remove James Taylor from his hip-to-hip previous surgical attachment to JF'nK, maybe he, too, can join the Barack-a-thon. Carole King's "You've Got a Friend" is from 50 years ago, when left and right could have a civilized conversation. James, a leftist of long renown, doesn't ring true anymore when he sings this, preferring our enemies as audience, not hearing their snickers.
