Bob McDonnell's World View

Waldo Jaquith has the complete analysis of Bob McDonnell's masters degree thesis. It is awesome! Well worth the read:

McDonnell has written a short book explaining the things that he wants to accomplish, he has worked unflaggingly to accomplish them, and now he’s claiming that it’s ludicrous that anybody would believe that he ever supported such things.

I can hardly wait for Bob McDonnell to tell us who he really is.

Note: Jaquith is a top tier Journalist - one of Virginia's best. And his thesis deconstruction story is an example of what he can do. Send him money.

If this is all the Deocrats can come up with on Bob McDonnell after 20 years in politics he must not be to bad. It is amazing how Obama openly did drugs, is friends with Bill Ayers a admitted terrorist, and went to church for 20 with Rev. Wright who openly said G D America along with alot of racial comments, and that never bothered any of you Democrats but something that Bob McDonnell wrote 20 years ago does. You are all nothing more than a bunch of party hacks and HYPOCRITES.

Waldo Jacquith is a punk, a writer wannabe. He's Bubby with a girly face and a feminine manner.

Bubby what you should have said was that Waldo Jaquith is one of Virginia's biggest party hacks. He only sees blue.

Bob McDonnell is telling the press that he doesn't believe this stuff any longer. Is he a liar, or a backsliding, weak-willed man without the courage of his convictions?

Just checking..

Was Obama a liar when he said he was going to give the people of the USA 5 days to read any bill before he signed it ?

Was Obama a liar when he campaigned on bringing the troops home ?

Which one is the "family value"?

Denying your faith, or lying about your faith because gaining the Governorship is more important?

Where are all the rock-ribbed "conservatives" when Virginia needs to know?

"Should a candidate be judged on what he wrote when he was 34? Personally, I don't know, but he judged me on what I said when I was 33..."

Stop the presses. For once I agree with Bubby, the one with pedophile leanings. If McDonell doesn't defend his beliefs, then he is almost as bad as Bubby who does defend his beliefs. I say fuck progressives, but do it by defending your beliefs, not by running away from them. You don't see Deeds running away from his "I'm the most progressive Democrap candidate" speech, do you?

p.s. Bubby, you really should wait until those boys reach the age of 18, ya know?

Thanks for your kind words, Bubby. That article took about four hours to write and another couple of hours to research. I'd hoped to finish with it a few days ago, but we had to put the new issue to bed at work, leaving those of us on the editorial staff editing, rewriting, and fact-checking relentlessly. Somehow coming home and doing more of that wasn't real exciting at times. :)

One benefit of working for a quarterly magazine, incidentally, is that I've come to believe that taking the long view is always better. I don't want to be first. That's for the Twitterers of the world. I want to be best. If that means taking a few days to think through a story, going through some revisions, doing some serious fact-checking, and bouncing ideas and drafts off of people, I think it's worth it.

Nice work, Waldo. Look at the polls. McDonnell up double-digits over your boy Deeds. You basically wasted 4 hours of your time, because nobody cares. NOBODY.

p.s. No Bubby, I didn't say look at the poles.

Democrats hold on it's going to be a bumpy road this election year.

Toni D you might want to give a rethink on Deeds he said just 10 years ago he wouldn't give any special rights to gay people and if Bob McDonnell can't change his mind in 20 years you know Deeds couldn't have changed his mind in just 10 years. It must really hurt when you get a knife in your back from the very man you support.
