The battle we face is not against the Dems. No, the battle we face is against the Virginia GOP. Between RINO's and NeverTrumpers, we are truly screwed. They will only fund campaigns that are RINO-NT (my term). That is why there were unfunded campaigns and others that went uncontested. To these RINO-NT they will just stick to there righteous indignation and weather the storm they created. A truly "take my ball and refuse to play" moment on a grand scale. However, there is a movement. Here locally I am getting behind Bob Goode, he is a great guy and will be a worthy candidate. I am also getting involved in the GOP, no more just sitting back and voting and donating. F the RINO-NT group in the GOP, We need to take back the Commonwealth. And there is only one way that will happen. "Do you hear the people sing, singing the songs of angry men" This business will get out of control. It will get out of control and we'll be lucky to live through it. -Rear Admiral (Lower Half) Joshua Painter Played by Senator Fred Thompson | |||

very true statement, the VA GOP appears to be unified, on the surface, however it seems there are several factions, and from what little bit I have read here and there the VA GOP factions would rather stand around and piss on each others boots than find and support good candidates, I'll also add, (and surely it has been mentioned in the past 67 pages) Voter Apathy, and Gun Owners, we can be our own enemy, https://chandlersfirearms.com/chesterfield-armament/ | |||

Redstone you’re absolutely right. They couldn’t find someone better than Gillespie to run against Ralphie? And then when they do go outside the establishment they pick a candidate like Corey Stewart?! WTF?! | |||

I'm going to the town hall in Alexandria. I used to live about half a mile from the location, bailed out in the late '90s. It was deep blue then, only one R on the City Council, etc. | |||

It's time to light a proper fire underneath the Virginia GOP. God bless America. | |||

Loudon county was taken over by Maryland "refugees" some time ago. Along with a couple other counties up here in N. Virginia. They screwed up Maryland to the point they could not stand it, moved across the border and promptly recreated what they ran away from. Sadly it is leaking into Prince William county as well.

I attended a county GOP meeting the other night, this was a big part of the meeting discussion. There are pushes to change the leadership at the. State level. Get involved, go to the county meetings, work to be a delegate at the state conventions and change the state committee to what we need it to be. “Government exists to protect us from each other.

Sheesh. A trip to Virginia.gop (the Republican Party of Virginia's site) yields a list of contacts for individual counties ( here). Very disappointingly, a click on my county's link brings me a great big "Nothing found" banner.  There is, however, an email address listed on that page as well. I've sent a message; we'll see what I get in return. - - - - - - ETA: The links for the two counties nearest me also bring defunct pages. Good grief. God bless America. | |||

Louisa (my county) and Rappahannock (my dad and brothers) are both a no go. Seems that the Grand ol' Party ain't too keen on supporting us. ___________________________ No thanks, I've already got a penguin. | |||

I guess I should join the Hanover GOP party. Since I know Daryl Carr, John Dixon. | |||

I too went to https://virginia.gop/find-your-local-gop/ I tried for every REP website (all 125 of them) no actual web site at the link for 73 of the 125 . Several responses to the link were email addresses. From a small sample, it appears the chairman name and chairman emails are correct. | |||

So far, there's no response to the email I sent. It's the weekend, so I'll hold out for a bit before saying anything too negative. Yet. - - - - - - - Holy smokes did the MSM trash Rally Day as a supremacist/extremist event!   Link to original video: https://youtu.be/tYPB5Sd7YOQ God bless America. | |||

The town hall in Alexandria was what I anticipated; lots of Dems, about 25 Guns Save Lives decals, something like 5 MDA shirts but the audience was definitely Dem. majority. The bills reportedly will go to the Senate for debate, and possible changes (saying prayers). We all had a few issues in common though; like traffic in NoVA. | |||

I got there at the end. There was an older(70-80) lady in the hall leaving the auditorium literally loudly exclaiming “guns scare me” in a shrill squeaking voice. Can you describe Levine’s answer to someone asking him the difference between a rifle and an assault weapon? I heard it was face palm inducing. A Veteran, whether active duty, retired, national guard, or reserve, is someone who, at one point in his or her life, wrote a blank check made payable to "The United States of America" for an amount of "up to and including my life." | |||

. Next meeting is Feb. 13th at 7 PM. If I’m in town, I’ll be there.  “Government exists to protect us from each other. Where government has gone beyond its limits is in deciding to protect us from ourselves.” ― Ronald Reagan Retired old fart | |||

Yes, I'd say so. Basically he tried to say hunting rifles you held to your shoulder like so (badly) and assault weapons he mimicked likened firing from the hip (maybe he watched Vic Morrow on "Combat") and going left to right, right to left to take down an advancing army. Oh, and he also repeated the Joe Biden philosophy more or less for defense, you just need a shotgun, get a shotgun...a few seconds later he included handguns. FWIW, he's not my delegate at least. | |||

I will not be able to attend that one. I have to take my son to his calc class at J Sarge that night. I will get in touch with Daryl and see what I can do. | |||

^^On a related note, I've gotten an e-mail from the Fairfax County GOP about an upcoming meeting/conference in March. Believe I'll attend and see what's going on locally. | |||

This is what the GOP did not see coming. A grass roots movement to take the party back. This spring is going to prove to be very exciting. Find out when you county meet is, go become a delegate, get involved. This business will get out of control. It will get out of control and we'll be lucky to live through it. -Rear Admiral (Lower Half) Joshua Painter Played by Senator Fred Thompson | |||

Yep, as vthoky stated above, it's time to light a fire under their ass. One election cycle (well maybe two) where they thought they could rest on their laurels, and suddenly we the rank and file citizens are catching it in the shorts and feeling betrayed and taken for granted by both parties. | |||
