Character Counts

When a man takes an oath, he's holding his own self in his own hands like water, and if he opens his fingers then, he needn't hope to find himself again. Sir Thomas More, Man For All Seasons

As I watch the candidates....from both parties....running for political office I just chuckle, roll my eyes, and shake my head, and think to myself nitwits are like cockroaches, you just can't get rid of them. 

It's being touted that former Senator John Sununu (R-NH), a "scion of a prominent GOP political dynasty, Sununu, 61, likely gives Republicans their best chance of flipping the seat after his brother, former Gov. Chris Sununu, rejected the party’s recruitment efforts for another cycle", with him saying " “somebody has to step up and lower the temperature. Somebody has to get things done.”   He thinks he's the guy who can do that.... Really? 

 Two things.  

He's been a supporter of John Kasich, which shows there's something seriously wrong with the man, and Nikki Haley, both now Republican outcasts, and he's been an anti-Trumper.  It appears the Democrat running is beatable, and allegedly, Sununu is considered the best Republican to win.... but.... polls are polls.  Show me the crowds not the polls, and Trump hasn't weighed in on who he thinks is the best Republican.  Based on his relationship with the RINO Sununu clan, I would normally be betting it wouldn't be John Sununu, except I have no doubt the Maine Republican party, like most state Republican organizations is filled with RINO's, who will offer no alternative to Sununu.  

In New Jersey ....and this is a shocker.... a Republican actually has a chance to become the governor, as the Democrat, Rep. Mikie Sherrill, running for governor has issues.  She's a graduate of the US Naval Academy, who wasn't allowed to march with her graduating class because she violated the Honor Code over a cheating scandal at the Academy.  A classmate testified she either "lied or obscured the facts".  Apparently they couldn't prove that for sure, but it's clear they had no doubt she violated the Honor Code.  And while she graduated, the author notes that "outcomes are not exonerations when the process was tainted by dishonesty", and time hasn't been on her side as more information has come forward, and she keeps dodging and twisting to avoid releasing her whole record.

In Maine Senator Susan Collins has been a thorn in the Republican backside, and in my view, a disgrace since first elected in 1997.   But as far left as she is, she actually seems rational compared the Democrat candidate running against her.  A guy sporting a Nazi tattoo, who Bernie Sanders thinks is just grand.  Talk about having two strikes against you.  Graham Platner claims he's shocked that's a Nazi tattoo....imagine that!

Now, ya just gotta see the humor in that given the Democrat penchant for declaring anyone who disagrees with them is a Nazi.   He's been busy deleting  social media posts showing he's an out and out communist and hates the police and he's made it clear he approves of violence.  What could possibly go wrong with a Senator like him?  

Then we have Virginia.  The Democrat gal running for governor started out with a huge lead...and that's crumbling.  Why?  Let's do the numbers.

1. Is it because of she supports mass amnesty for anyone in the world who makes it into the US?  
2. Could it be because she babbles "word salads" about males in girls’ locker rooms, clearly fearing to offend the LGBTQIAXYZCNNCBSABCMSNBCMSNOW movement, totally unconcerned about the girls? 
3. How about the possibility that overall she has a woke DEI, pro-trans, pro-illegal immigrant agenda and loved Joe Biden's massive spending bills that caused record inflation? 
4. Or perhaps it's because she's really unhappy voters in Virginia expect her to condemn the violence promoted by Democrats primarily the Democrat running for Attorney General for the State of Virginia, Jay Jones?

Nah, that's not why her numbers are starting to crash.  It's because, according to MSNBC sexism is the source for her troubles.  Oh, wait, they're blaming sexism for her problems when she's running against another woman and they're calling it sexism? A black woman at that.  So.... is that racism? 

Let's talk about Jay Jones who's running to be Virginia's next Attorney General.  He's been exposed for his reckless disregard for the law, and somehow thinks he deserves special privileges. His willingness to support violence is well documented, including wanting the "head of the cop who donated to the Rittenhouse defense".  This is the guy who claimed he wanted to put bullets in the head Todd Gilbert, the Republican Speaker of the House and "hoped that Jennifer Gilbert’s children would die in her arms, adding,  “I mean do I think Todd and Jennifer are evil? And that they’re breeding little fascists? Yes.”  This is another disgraceful leftist lunatic who if elected claims he will prosecute President Trump because he's bad.  

 

He's anti police and anti-law an order, even wanting to defund the police, and he's running for the top law enforcement job in the state?  Where have we seen that before, and the consequences of those actions?   He's aligned himself with BLM invoking their thug icons George Floyd and Jacob Blake, "wants to pull police from schools, end qualified immunity for law enforcement, and end cash bail", and wants to end the "system that's oppressing black people."  He's an anti white racist, saying, "the daily indignities of being black can be burdensome. If we respond to it all, we would have riots daily.”  

 

He's a race baiting racist, and the Democrat party stands behind him.  Why? According to the Chairman of the DNC Virginians have accepted his apology for those statements. Polls suggest otherwise, except among Democrats.  It turns out 93% of Virginia Democrats think calling for the murder of Republicans and their children dying in their mother's arms is perfectly acceptable.  The Democrat party has descended into violence, willing to assault and even murder anyone who challenges their insanity, and it's contagious on a national scale, even at local level politics such as this school board race.

 

I've written and/or posted a lot about the NYC race, so I won't go into it here, but I really think this is telling.  Both Mamdani and Cuomo say a vote for the other is a vote for Trump, which in a round about way is saying they would vote for each other rather than Donald Trump.  How insane is that?  

 

I think New Jersey and Virginia are going to choose Republican governors, and the NYC race has set off a shocking chain of events exposing the insanity of the Democrat party, exposures that are making an impact nationally.  Even Dana Perino of FOX News,  who isn't one to jump out in front of an issue, believes Democrats will lose New Jersey and Virginia.  Imagine that!
