CUCCINELLI IS IN THE RACE
Posted by redvirginia on March 31, 2008
Making an announcement today at the Fairfax County Government Center, State Senator Ken Cuccinelli will make official his intention to become Attorney General of Virginia in 2009. With all three positions now on the GOP side basically selected, the question comes down to how long will the Democrats drag out 2009???
Ken is the most conservative senator in the state senate and is a welcome addition to the race. With 3 announced candidates, each for their respective positions, the GOP in VA may be on a swing back to dominance. While DPVA will be fighting about Deeds or Moran and their other down ticket races, RPV will be rallying around their candidates to propel them to general election success.

Ken Cuccinelli is not a leader in my book and will not complete the ticket.
Virginia does not need an Attorney General like Ken Cuccinelli. He voted against Jill Vogel’s special interest bill on the first vote in the Senate special session. Unfortunately, he slipped out of the room to avoid the second vote after strong bullying from Senator Dick Saslaw. Did it slip his mind that the big developer defendant in the lawsuit pushing this bill contributed to Saslaw’s campaign. Did he no sense the stink factor attached to this bill??? Ken wants to be Attorney General but he doesn’t vote against legislation that will tip the outcome of active litigation. Virginians don’t want an Attorney General that picks when to protect people’s rights and do the right thing. The AG job is a 24/7 position. Stick to the Senate and where it’s easy to pick and choose the right moments to step up and play leader. It’s funny that he stuck his neck out for Jill Holtzman Vogel and she talked to the Winchester Star following the vote and it comes up that you left the room for the second vote to pass it. She’s from your own party and didn’t even look out for you. Pretty stupid move and you lost my support, Ken.
