Cuccinelli for Governor


A letter to the editor of our local papers, except for a missed deadline with the Eagle and the FNP:

The last gubernatorial debate proved that Terry McAuliffe knows little to nothing about Virginia or governing.  His cure for  all Virginia’s ills was Medicaid expansion and all ills were caused by a Ken Cuccinelli vote or comment, according to McAuliffe.  Cuccinelli was much more responsive. 
 
If you missed the debate, check the McAuliffe web site:
- His energy plan is wind, clean energy and efficiency.  Wind? 
- His healthcare solution is Medicaid expansion, largely funded by “federal” funds – funds from federal taxpayers – for a time, but would still cost Virginia taxpayers $498 million over five years and increase after that.
- His “Women” issue page – yes, he employs the obligatory-for-Democrats “scare women” tactic – says, “I strongly believe that women should be able to make their own healthcare decisions without interference from Washington or Richmond.”  Really?  What about ObamaCare?

Ken Cuccinelli’s energy plan emphasizes natural resources, of which we have an abundance in Virginia and which would add jobs.  He opposes Medicaid expansion – another federal program –and he doesn’t have a “Women” issue.  I guess he thinks women are people, too?  I plan to vote for Ken Cuccinelli on November 5th.
