We cats think it's pretty clear that to be in the Republican Party today, you have to be a gun nut.
The GOP, completely in lockstep with the child killers over at the NRA, reflexively opposes anything that they think might infringe, even in an eensy-weensy way, on their sacred Second Amendment. (Check out their party platform if you don't believe us.)
Therefore, we think it's hilarious that today is the day that Baby Marco Rubio came to Virginia to campaign for Ken Cuccinelli for Governor.
Baby Marco's little visit will get zero coverage. Why? Because some guy shot 12 people to death at the Navy Yard this morning. Ironic, yes?
Goodness gracious. Things just aren't going Cootchy's way, are they? Despite an apparent win of the Northern Virginia Technology Council's PAC endorsement, Ken just isn't happy. He's inexplicably calling Democratic opponent Terry McAuliffe "a bully" instead of basking in the glow of the NVTC's nod.
Maybe he realizes that an accomplishment marked by an asterisk is nothing to be excited about. (Just ask Roger Maris.) Or maybe he wants to distract the media from the fact that Republican Lt. Governor Bill Bolling was one of the elected officials who urged the NVTC not to endorse him. That, we cats think, was the real news coming out of this weekend.
You know what else we think? That Ken Cuccinelli's sense of entitlement has been upset by all this messy pushback. As a Republican, he probably felt he deserved any business group's support with no questions asked. But he didn't get this one easily.
Meanwhile, POLITICO is running stories that he's blowing the election. Not the kind of stuff that a guy who's already been to Iowa expected. We cats PURR.
