So, when has Ken "Let's Repeal the 19th Amendment But Let Fetuses Vote" Cuccinelli ever led in polling for the Virginia Governor's race? We cats think the answer is never — at least, not since people truly started paying attention.
Nevertheless, right wingers got all excited a few days ago, when a single outlier poll (yes, Quinnipiac, we're talking about you) had Terry McAuliffe ahead of the Cootch by only three points. Well, everybody can calm down, now. Tonight we're back to Terry leading Cuccinelli by — goodness gracious, eight.
And who's behind Cootchy's consistently sorry performance? Women.
This is not news. But it's interesting because, as Virginia voters in a key swing county, we cats have gotten some very weird phone calls lately. A mysterious group called "Independent Women's Voice" has been trying mighty hard to convince us to vote against Terry McAuliffe because of — wait for it — taxes.
We've gotten robocalls, and calls from live push pollers. Strangely, the callers are usually, um, men. But their target audience is clear: They only want to talk to us if we're women. And they want us to know that Terry McAuliffe supported the largest tax increase in Virginia history! Egad! (What they don't mention, of course, is that the tax in question is Transvaginal Bob McDonnell's. But never mind.)
This, they believe, is the smoking gun that will convince their fellow "independent women" to abandon McAuliffe for the Cootch.
Can they get any more clueless, rudderless or lame? We think not. After all, they're calling us, aren't they? We cats PURR.
