Borking McDonnell

The DNC is going after Virginia Attorney General Bob McDonnell in a kind of homage to Ted Kennedy's famous attack on Robert Bork.

The new line of attack -- drawn from McDonnell's deeply socially conservative Regent University thesis -- offers Democrats hopes of redefining a race that seemed to be slipping from their grasp.

The statement from DNC national spokesman Hari Sevugan raises the themes likely to wind up on Northern Virginia television screens some time soon:

In Bob McDonnell's preferred Virginia, women would be stigmatized for choosing to work outside the home, access to contraception would be all but banned and women would be denied equal pay for equal work. In Bob McDonnell's preferred Virginia, the medical decisions of women and their doctors would be criminalized and the victims of rape and incest would have no medical recourse. While Virginians want to keep the Commonwealth moving forward, these devastating revelations prove that Bob McDonnell wants to take Virginia backwards.

And to be clear, these were not the musings of young student, but rather a 34-year old married man on the cusp of elected office who would go on to doggedly pursue the extreme agenda he called for once in that office.


By undermining his main argument that he's in the main stream of Virginians, not only has this revelation laid bare McDonnell's real agenda, but is nothing short of a game changer in this election.
