The lead editorial from Sunday’s Washington Post:
Mr. Kilgore has often insisted that he is ideologically closer to Virginia’s popular governor than is Mr. Kaine. Yesterday, by hammering away at Mr. Kilgore’s irresponsible anti-tax orthodoxy, Mr. Kaine reminded voters that he is Mr. Warner’s rightful heir, not the Republican.
Phsawwww… neither of these candidates can hold Mark Warner’s jockstrap… so to speak. Lets not build up Tim Kaine just because Jerry Kilgoreis a weak candidate. Kaine isn’t exactly lighting the Commonwealth on fire.
You forgot to mention this quote from that same editorial:
“But the mismatch that Democrats had hoped for, and Republicans had feared, did not materialize. Call it a draw, with the psychological edge to Mr. Kilgore.”
No offense, Waldo, but that’s a leftist editorial board…and I think they disagree with the tone of your coverage yesterday.
And you have to know that Tim Kaine is anything but a Mark Warner clone. Saying it doesn’t make it so. Kaine’s trying, but he has a record.
It’s a good day to be a Kilgore supporter.
