Virginia Right!

The Democrat Party of Virginia spent truckloads of money in a futile attempt to defeat Republican Incumbent Delegate John O’Bannon M.D. in the 73rd House District.

The landslide victory saw Dr. O’Bannon receiving an overwhelming 62.3% of the vote while Shields received only 37%, an embarrassing total considering the massive amounts of money that the DPVA spent on totally false smear mailings. It does go to show that the voters of the 73rd are far smarter than Tom Shields and his bosses Tim Kaine and Nancy Pelosi give them credit for being.

If Ann Jones is typical of Democrat Tom Shields’ supporters, he is in serious trouble. “Ann” is one major liar!

That is if Ann Jones exists at all. It appears to be a “pen name”. I wonder who would want to masquerade as Ann Jones? And why.

Well, if you look at correspondence from Ann Jones to Delegate O’Bannon’s office, and compare it to comments “she” left on this blog, one can see that something is not right about Annie.

Democrat Tom Shields is desperate. His internal polls show a big loss for him next week.

Laughably, he is trying to challenge Dr. O’Bannon in O’Bannon’s own field: medicine. His attack over the weekend (see this post) met with a polite correction from O’Bannon. In his response, Obannon said:

Delegate John M. O’Bannon III, M.D. (R-Henrico) today decried the most recent of his Democrat opponent’s negative mail pieces, which 73rd District voters received this weekend.
The latest in a series of negative mailers, all of which were authorized by Tom
Shields and paid for by the Democratic Party of Virginia, claims that John O’Bannon has not only worked against people suffering from Alzheimer’s, but is also to blame for the lack of a cure for this disease.

Democrat Tom Shields has virtually withdrawn from the 73rd House District with his latest ad, mailed by his bosses Tim Kaine and the Democratic Party of Virginia. His campaign has also taken money from Acorn / SEIU sources and supporters.

If there were any voters left that had not decided to vote against Tom Shields, this mailer should do the trick. The desperation is unmistakable and the accusation laughable and downright fraudulent.

Democrat Tom Shields is running in the 73rd Virginia House District and calling himself a “New Generation Of Independent Leadership“.

His opponent, Republican John O’Bannon M.D. has pointed out at several debates that Shields’ office is in the Democratic Party of Virginia Office Suites and that the Democrats are sending mass mailings on Shields behalf that are not truthful and totally dishonest.

Democrat Tom Shields, running for the 73rd Virginia House seat and President Obama’s controversial (to say the least) Safe Schools Czar Kevin Jennings have amazingly similar views. Both are a part of the “New Generation of Independent Leadership” which Tom Shields espouses ad nauseam.

Both are strong supporters of LGBT rights (including marriage). In case you are unfamiliar with the LGBT initials, it stands for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgendered persons. Most people are probably not too familiar with this amorphous grouping of abnormal and deviant sexual appetites. And the lefty radicals would somehow expect you to feel unenlightened for your ignorance, as if the sordid details might somehow set you free.

Beneath the calm exterior of a pseudo intellectual, Democrat Tom Shields’ heart beats for the Drag Queens. And Bisexuals, Gays and Lesbians. And he thinks the state ought to keep it’s nose out of any type of mix and match marriage these “individuals” can manage to come up with. Morality be damned. In a debate [...]

Driving around the 73rd District yesterday, I couldn’t help but notice the Delegate O’Bannon signs were everywhere. They outnumbered even the Bob McDonnell signs, but not by much. In an unscientific canvasing, I counted the O’Bannon and Shields signs. What I found surprised me. O’Bannon won hands down, but second place was taken by the [...]

Recently, a self professed supporter of Democrat Tom Shields has been posting some rather curious comments on several of my posts concerning Shields and his ties to Acorn. He goes by the name Alter of Freedom and that is apparently the name of his blog. Some of his comments give details of the results of canvasing Tom Shields has done, and the Blog has numerous pro Shields posts.

Tom Shields is running for the 73rd Virginia House District. He has taken money from his Mentor, Congressman Bobby Scott, for whom he worked for almost 5 years. Scott sent him money, as did the SEIU, which is an arm of Acorn. Delegate O’Bannon has called on Shields to repudiate Scott’s vote and return the [...]

I really misjudged Tom Shields in my earlier posts on the man. Not only is he taking money from Congressman Bobby Scott, SEIU/Acorn and others, he still refuses to abandon his support for Acorn. Even after the child prostitution tapes were shown. He is trying to raise money, calls Delegate O’Bannon names for pointing out Shield’s Acorn connection and now, O’Bannon’s signs are being damaged and stolen. And not just a few.

A few days ago, Tom Shields made the following ridiculous statement:

Yesterday, Tom Shields called on his opponent, incumbent John O’Bannon to repudiate Bob McDonnell’s beliefs that working women, contraception, and child day care are detrimental to society. Shields also called on O’Bannon to explain his own extreme record on women’s issues. O’Bannon has yet to distance himself from Bob McDonnell’s radical views or explain his own voting record in support of that agenda.

The Swing State Project, which looks at Campaign and Election News – Covering Key Races Around the Country predicts that the floundering Tom Shields campaign that many Democrats once had high hopes for is going lose to Delegate O’Bannon in the November election.

If you are going to bill yourself as a New Generation of Independent Leadership, you totally lose credibility when your donors are Unions, Gay Groups and the Democratic Party. With ties to Acorn and Congressman Bobby Scott, proponent of continued Acorn funding, as well as the SEIU, an arm of Acorn (ACORN’s co-founder, Wade Rathke, also founded SEIU), New Generation of Independent Leadership Tom Shields is not!

We asked Democrat Tom Shields to repudiate Congressman Bobby Scott’s vote to continue funding Acorn. Scott was one of the 75 Democrats that voted to continue funding for Acorn in spite of the many videos released to date showing a systematic pattern of the Community Organizer group at 5 offices (so far) around the country to assist in child prostitution and tax evasion. Even funding political campaigns with the ill gotten gains from prostitution.

Democrat Tom Shields who is challenging Republican Delegate John O’Bannon for the 73rd District House seat has spent a great deal of time with radical Congressman Bobby Scott. In fact, Shields was Scott’s Legislative Assistant at one point.

Shields attempts to paint himself as a “New Generation of Independent Leadership”, but anyone that hangs around with Bobby Scott is not likely to be an independent anything.

Nothing is too low for Taliban Tom Shields. The voters of the 73rd Virginia House District are now watching as two Catholics, Tom Shields and his Campaign Manager Tony Coppola toss aside their Catholic faith and go on a vicarious attack against Bob McDonnell through Delegate O’Bannon. Taliban Tom claims to be a member of St. Bridget’s Catholic Church on Three Chopt Road. I wonder what Reverend Carr thinks about Taliban Tom now? Has Taliban Tom actually listened to the teachings at his Church? Does his Pastor believe Bob McDonnell’s views on abortion are radical? His views on contraception and birth control?
