Virginia Mega Thread: The Youngkin Administration

[Calthrina950]

You know for all the comparisons Biden gets to Jimmy Carter, at least Jimmy was able to hold the House and Senate in the 1978 midterms. I see little to no chance Biden does the same.

Of course, Democrats still dominated the South at the local, state, and congressional levels in 1978, which was midway through the uninterrupted 40-year period that they controlled the House. They do not have that dominance or leverage now.

That was the last midterm where any Democratic president managed to hold a majority in the House.

Glad to see the Biden-Carter comparison is gaining traction.

Sears appears on track to win as well.

Miyares could fall to Herring but I think he's modestly favored too.

Governor Youngkin now speaking on Fox!

[junior chįmp]

Back to the drawing board for Dems.

>implying they had a drawing board to begin with

They just gon blame leftists lmao.

Do you think CRT had anything to do with the loss or do you stand by your previous comments that these cultural issues don’t actually matter as much as the media thinks

I stand by my previous comments of course. Youngkin won brcause Bidens approvals are down and Bidens approvals are down because the economy is teetering on recession. Not because of culture war dogshìt talked about on or near election day.

Well looks like it's not just the Democrats who take the wrong lessons from everything:

Morons should realize that Trump was the biggest liability ever for them who cost them a trifecta in four years. Meanwhile they are almost instantly able to turn it around bigly the moment he's no longer on the ballot. Youngkin kept his rural gains while making a lot of in-roads back into the suburbs. THAT is the GOP ticket to victory going forward. But Trump himself remains toxic in the suburbs and if they nominate him again, not saying he'd definitely lose, but they'd make it a lot harder on themselves. Youngkin proved that all it really takes for them is to keep the same basic message for the most part but moderate the rhetoric and be less of an unhinged jackass. If they were smart, they'd get this and dump Trump for someone more like him. But fortunately, they aren't smart.

If Biden helps save the planet, that legacy will put whatever Carter's was to shame. Plus, Biden is still most likely to get re-elected, even if 2022 is a wave. The supply crisis and Covid at least should be over by then and the economy booming.

HOD 63 has been uncalled and the GOP has a chance at 51 again.

Alright fellas. Gonna quit it for tonight and get some sweet sweet shut eye. It's been a fun evening staring at numbers changing but either way congrats to Youngkin on becoming Governor of Virginia and good night!

Given the absence of China and Russia from the recent climate change summit, and given the prior track record of world leaders on the issue, I'm not sure if Biden is going to have a dramatic impact of that nature.

-Biden will not "save the planet",because the planet doesn't need to be saved.
-Biden will not be reelected. He's already senile.
-The economy will certainly not booming with inflationist politics + encumbrance put on energy politics.

How strange a leftist brain works.
