An update to the above cited article includes “Bolling’s statement seems to suggest he could run as an independent.” A couple of other sources comment to the same effect.

If true, would that change your earlier comments?

How the Virginia governor’s race just got very interesting

Posted by Chris Cillizza on November 28, 2012 at 11:03 am

Virginia Lt. Gov. Bill Bolling’s decision to bow out of the race for the GOP gubernatorial nomination on Wednesday sets up a political junkie’s dream general election next year between former Democratic National Committee Chairman Terry McAuliffe and state Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli.

Both men are already national figures, are expected to be able to raise tens of millions for the race and are the sort of quotable types that reporters love to cover. McAuliffe and Cuccinelli also have something else in common: Neither man could likely win a general election against anyone other than the person he is going to run against next year.

Put another way: If you love McAuliffe — the glib, fast-talking, BFF of Bill Clinton — you really love him. And, if you love Cuccinelli — the conservative warrior, speak truth to power guy who was a leading opponent of President Obama’s health care law – you really love him. And, if you don’t like either man, then you really don’t like them. Both men are no-gray-area politicians; very few people don’t feel strongly about them.

That’s what makes this race so intriguing. Cuccinelli will have rock-solid support bordering on fervor from the Republican base while McAuliffe — now that Sen. Mark Warner (D) has removed himself from consideration — should receive similar treatment from the Democratic base.

If you agree with the above article, why would you want to introduce Perriello into the mix? How does he change the “Both men are no-gray-area politicians; very few people don’t feel strongly about them”?

Get some L-deprenyl, baby!

And for the love of Richard Nixon! Suzie: we heard you whine about a stolen election the first 38 times you posted about it. Now would you please Shut The Frack Up!?!?!?

Move on to Canada or retire or whatever your oxygen-deprived brain tells you to do in response to your ideas being resoundingly and clearly rejected in the last election.

He’s going home because some idiots among the Rethugs saw that he might take Cooch in an actual primary vote so they fixed it for their guy. Depending on the Dem nominee, Bolling is a guy I might have voted for. I’ll NEVER vote for Cooch.
