Northam’s abandonment of rural Virginia signals an attempt to turn Northam into Perriello — a metamorphosis that is more soft coup than authentic.

Just one more example of how nasty certain Democrats feel themselves obligated to become in the contest to lose against Rep. Barbara Comstock.

Former Delegate David Ramadan is showing no signs of disappearing from the public square as he renews the call for reform at the University of Virginia.

Saslaw (D-Fairfax) strongly condemns: “They’re not looking out for the consumer, they’re screwing the consumer.”

On September 4, 1623 Governor Francis Wyatt issued a proclamation prohibiting private trade with Indians in Virginia.

As soon as we sanction a sin as being in conformity with and receiving the approbation of the nature of God’s design, we are engaged in heresy and blasphemy.

Northam’s campaign is being forced to accept bailouts in order to resuscitate a campaign that to date has been powered more on fumes than ideas.

Dichotomies aren’t dismissed as false merely because they are uncomfortable to hear… between destroying monuments and funding schools, let’s talk.

Not just content to dodge debates, beleaguered Democratic gubernatorial nominee Ralph Northam is declining to appear at the traditional Buena Vista Parade.

Democrat Ralph Northam is begging voters not to believe Ed Gillespie’s latest ad targeting his record on sanctuary cities.
The Northam campaign is out with an ad in Roanoke saying Ed Gillespie’s new ad slamming Northam for supporting sanctuary cities in Virginia “isn’t true.”
The panicked turnaround of this hastily cut spot shows the Gillespie campaign has found a message they know hurts Northam. It’s a testament to the disciplined campaign being run by the team.
But you’ll notice that even in his attempted refutation of the Gillespie ad, Ralph Northam doesn’t address the central fact. Ralph Northam cast the deciding vote against a bill that would ban sanctuary cities in Virginia.
So Ralph’s ad totally misses the point. If Ralph Northam is governor and an illegal immigrant commits a violent crime in Virginia, he or she is free to remain on the streets after they’ve served their time. Ed Gillespie would make sure state and local law enforcement cooperate with the federal government to make sure they are deported.
It’s a clear contrast between Gillespie’s law and order campaign message versus Ralph Northam’s risky policies.
