In a Washington Post article today entitled , “Mr Cuccinelli has himself to blame for loss”, it was mentioned that:
The Cuccinelli record had nothing to do with job-creation or the state’s economic well-being or alleviating deepening transportation problems, all of which are central to Virginians’ well-being. It was mainly about bashing homosexuals, harassing illegal immigrants, crusading against abortion, denying climate change, flirting with birthers and opposing gun control. A hero to the tea party and a culture warrior of the first rank, Mr. Cuccinelli lost because he was among the most polarizing and provocative figures in Richmond for a decade. That made him the wrong candidate for Virginia.
Sound familiar?
I wonder if the “Cuccinelli Effect” will reach as far as Montana?
One can only hope.

Judging from (by?) Missoula’s reelection of John Engen, it is very unlikely that citizens of this state will see through a phony–either of the left or the right.

Well, aside from the fact you’re quoting a liberal newspaper, I’d wager the fact that the Dems outspent Cuccinelli 2 to 1 and astroturfed a signature gathering campaign to put a libertarian on the ballot and use Obama bundler’s to fundraise for him might have contributed more than his positions.
He had already won a statewide race with those positions before. And your guilt by association is complete ad hominem. At some point I would hope a man of your intellect would have more than just a picture where Daines is standing NEAR Cruz.
There is a lot of dishonesty in this whole scenario.
