Just wondering how both these dudes got elected ?
Was it without any oppo research?
These are not little skeletons, but a full blown crypt of corpses.

As Fairfax Wildly Flails

Who writes this stuff?

Seriously—who needs Breitbart when you can get headlines like this right here?

It appears Fairfax doth protest too much. Not a good sign.

Proper vetting of these folks might have been helpful. Who was running them?

Great care must be taken when dealing with the political consultant class. They get paid big bucks to turn the crank on the political machinery, but obviously they require careful vetting, themselves.

Maybe he did it and maybe he didn’t but in this MeToo age there’s no effective defense against decades old accusations. More’s the pity.

Fairfax has been through 2 FBI investigations and has top security clearance. This allegation was not made until after he won his election for LT Gov. His record was 100% clean while running for office.

Fairfax needs to STFU and hire a PR crisis management firm and listen to them. If he can’t afford one, STFU will do.

I fail to understand why anyone harboring any thoughts of a successful political career hooks up with a woman at a political convention and takes her back to his/her hotel room. Sex is a strong, innate drive, but having goals is all about foregoing unwise decisions and steering clear of obstacles in your path. Propositioning a person in a bar or at a political event when your career path is elective office is idiocy.

As a non-professional, my right to flail wildly.

Who hired Laura Ingraham to write these headlines?

I, for one, am a little suspicious of the whole mess. YES, there was ‘oppo research’. Gillespie went total Trump on these guys and threw the kitchen sink at them…and NOW? One’s a racist and the other a sex addict? It seems like someone is trying to hit the ‘movements’…and this morning I am watching the pundits being ‘concerned’ that the ‘sanctimonious Left’ won’t ‘punish’ these two…and citing Kavanaugh…who by the way WAS put on the Supreme Court no matter how big a victim the GOP wants to paint him…

Thank you!

This article is extremely offensive. “wildy flails”??? anyone can say anything about anyone and people automatically believe anything no matter how “wild” the accusation is.

The Lt. Gov. claims this is not true yet you have these reporters reporting uncorrobarated accusations as true.
