I haven't seen a worse crop of gubernatorial candidates in years. Cliff notes version: a corrupt tea party nut job versus a liberal carpetbagging Yankee who talks about creating jobs but business activities actually moved jobs out of Virginia. FYI he's actually faked a Southern accent which is so sad. This is a total trainwreck and I genuinely feel awful for the state. I don't know a single Republican or Democrat who is thrilled about their respective candidates for the state to be honest.

The libertarians have some good candidates. But they probably don't stand a chance. One wants to do away with State income tax.

Heck, I would just be happy if they would get rid of the personal property tax where they nail you yearly with a not insignificant sum depending on how new/expensive your car is every year. This is after getting a nice chunk of change with the sales tax from buying a new car.

Yep, not an ounce of character between either of these morons. Neither will serve the people of Virginia well.

Damn! NH is kinda the same though. They just nail you in the car registration and property (home owners) tax.
