I don't understand why so many people here keep bringing up Barbara Comstock as a potentially good nominee for VA-Sen. Comstock's voting record is so centrist, so far from the staunchly conservative wing, that most Virginia Republicans would be quick to label her a "RINO." She would be shunned by most Republicans in districts VA-01, VA-02, VA-05, VA-06, VA-07, and VA-09, because she is clearly not from the conservative wing. Either she would fail to get nominated because of being labeled a "RINO," or if the establishment makes her the nominee anyway, over much protestation from the conservative wing, then there will be massive numbers of rank-and-file GOP voters who will support some third-party alternative, maybe even the nominee of the Constitution Party.
No. Other than her vote against the AHCA to save face electorally, she seems like a typical Republican teabagger to me.
