This is the guy who subpoenaed emails and other records of scientists at UVA because he wanted to refute their research on climate change.

What business an attorney general has getting involved in scientific research, I still don't understand.

I'm afraid he's going to be our next governor. Nobody votes in the non-presidential elections, so the Republicans have a chance to take control at the state level. Ugh.

I got a letter from the Democratic Governors Association warning about the Tea Party push for control of governorships and state houses, with a particular worry about Cuccinelli this year. They said the polls are dead even at the moment, in VA.
