Eric Cantor was defeated in a primary election two years ago. But in Virginia politics, Cantor is a lot like stepping in old chewing gum on a hot sidewalk. No matter what you do, you just can’t get rid of it. Now Cantor is still gumming up the works from the outside with organizations like […]

I know both Jim Herring and Eddie Whitlock and they are both good and honorable men. These two gentlemen are in a face-off for Chairman of the Henrico County Republican Committee. But there has been a development the last couple of days that is about to rock the GOP establishment and it involved the Republican […]

As a Libertarian, I am used to disappointment. Some Libertarians choose to fight the good fight amongst other libertarians, some amongst civil libertarians within the Democrat Party – I’ve chosen to fight the battle amongst Republicans. Considering a Republican Leadership ruled by Boehner and McConnell, it is no great surprise that most evenings I feel […]

Here are my thoughts based on stuff I hear and stuff I am told on the likelihood of whether the GOP will hold the state senate: With (gasp!) 25 contested races our of 40 it will be interesting on election night. 21 is the magic number Solid D – 2(Locke), 5(Alexander), 9(McEachin), 18(Lucas), 25(Deeds), 30(Ebbin), […]

Ted Cruz just destroyed Mitch McConnell on the floor of the US Senate. John Boehner and Mitch McConnell have done more to destroy America than Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid and Barack Obama have done combined. They lie to the American people, use show votes and deception to pretend they are doing something the American people […]

Have you seen the latest fundraising campaign for the Republican Party of Virginia called ‘The Grassroots Challenge”? I have had several Virginia Right! readers send me messages that they are irritated by this campaign because it didn’t have to happen this way. The party is scrounging and begging for funds because they are as broke […]

Dear Editor, The 2014 election cycle, like most election cycles these days was brutal. The commercials, the mudslinging, the back and forth comments between the people. Since June I’ve read a lot of things in The Mechanicsville Local and elsewhere that really frustrated me. But, in the end, I realize when your candidate and candidates […]

For folks in Virginia’s 7th Congressional District, Dave Brat will be on the ballot TWICE. Brat won the Republican Primary against Eric Cantor and because Cantor resigned and failed to serve his complete term, this is not only a general election, it is a special election to fill the seat for the remainder of Cantor’s […]

According to PJ Media: Sources tell PJ Media that House Majority Leader Eric Cantor’s long-time top consultant, Ray Allen, has “angrily” stated to multiple individuals that he intends to bankrupt the Republican Party of Virginia (RPV), to install his own people throughout all levels of RPV’s State Central Committee, and to rebuild the RPV with money […]

It is quite ironic that the very same issue I ran into with Nancy Russell at the Hanover County Republican Committee – where I was called out for criticizing “one of our own” – is the very thing that led to Eric Cantor’s defeat. “We are supposed to support our fellow Republicans,” the admonition went.

An anonymous email is circulating around parts of Virginia’s 7th District making several absurd claims.

Not because they wouldn’t want to, but because it is […]

While I am exhausted, and like many of you hardly slept a wink last night, I have poured over the countless articles declaring the reasons for Dr. Brats victory and Eric Cantor’s loss. Maybe this is just exhaustion rearing its ugly head, but I am annoyed with the analysis. It appears that the national opinion […]
