"Turning Point" by Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli

Dear Friends and Fellow Virginians,

This loss is tough to take.

I know a lot of you put your all into electing Mitt Romney as our next president and George Allen as our next U.S. Senator. I know, because I kept seeing you out on the campaign trail, at phone banks, and at rallies.
Unfortunately, our team fell just short.

Before we move on, I want to commend everyone's efforts in the Commonwealth. In 2008, President Obama won by over 230,000 votes. This time the the margin was less than 90,000.

With your dedication over the past several months we were able to close the gap and flip tens of thousands of those voters to our side.

For more encouraging news, nearly 75% of Virginia's voters — 2.5 million voters — elected to defend property rights by voting yes on question one. Even with Democrat sample ballots recommending a 'no' vote, the eminent domain amendment passed with an overwhelming margin.

This constitutional amendment is something I've championed for almost 8 years and I'm proud to say that Virginia stood up to protect our individual rights.

Now, I'm not going to sugarcoat it—the next four years are going to be a struggle. If they're anything like the last four we can expect more regulations, higher taxes, fewer jobs, and more crushing debt.

There are two ways to go from here: give up, or, learn from our mistakes and soldier on. I hope this choice is as clear to you as it is me.

When I tuck my kids in at night I don't want to have to explain to them why I stopped fighting for their future—for our country's future.

We owe it to our ideas to win.

You and I know this isn't about just one election. It's about a movement. Spreading the message of liberty and limited government is going to take a lot of time and effort.

The Founders signed the U.S. Constitution over 11 years after they signed the Declaration of Independence. And the independence movement had its beginnings more than a decade before July 4, 1776!

The one question I have for all of you is this: Are you going to allow this to be the tipping point or the turning point?

I hope you will help me stand up to the big government bullies. We will not give up. We will fight harder than ever!

I get the feeling that a lot of you are just like me. Once you've had a taste of the fight for liberty there's no turning back. You and I understand that this is a battle worth having.

It's not just our children or grandchildren's future that is in jeopardy anymore. It's our immediate future. We cannot sit idly while the Federal government racks up over $16 Trillion in debt and signs our name on the bill.
When the Founders signed the Declaration they made a pledge to each other. Many of them and their family members lost their lives. Several more lost their fortunes.

Not one of them sacrificed their sacred honor.

We have the greatest country in the history of the world. That didn't happen by accident. That didn't happen by people doing nothing.

If there's one thing this effort has made clear it's this: you and I are not alone. There are millions of other Americans that will stand alongside us to fight to take our country back.

Get ready. The battle for liberty continues!

Sincerely,

Ken Cuccinelli, II

Sound advice, but methinks someone is posturing for a run at an office.

I think the bottom part of the original post and his website makes it pretty obvious.

Terry McAuliffe on the Democrat side declared he's going to run too.

Ken Cuccinelli is a good man and a genuine Constitutionalist conservative. Of course he is running for Governor. But I do not doubt that he meant every word he wrote there, and his record supports that view.

[Jakeiscrazy]

It would be a pleasure to vote for Cuccinelli he has been very clear and direct with his views and constantly supports the second amendment.

Maybe he will run against that Obama lover Warner.

I've met him. I don't particularly like him personally. But he's followed the VA and US Constitutions even when he's had to hold his nose (e. g. defending George Mason University with their campus gun ban), so I'd have to hold my nose some and support him for office.

I may not like you, but when you apply the Constitution, I have to at least respect that about you. So unless there's someone even more Constitutionalist, you will likely get my vote.

So the oath of office that says "all enemies foreign and domestic" being violated by anyone supportin illegals means you wont be voting for anymore liberals right?

Or is this a walking both sides of the fence issue.

Here is a great example of how illegal immigration will destroy the constitution.

Illegals get amnesty. That means they get all the benefits officially available and continue to breed like roaches. This means more anchor babies mostly latino, The newly legalized parents and anchor babies vote for people like Obama. People like Obama put people like Sotomeyer on the court. People like her do not view the second amendment as fundamental. Any questions as even if repubs cave on amnesty despite the lack of intelligence of many who would vote just based on amensty , Dems will point out to the latinos they made it happen and need to be rewared. There is not benefit to conservative voters to compromise on the issue?

They will disarm us before they try reverse jim crow against white people. Look at nations in africa what happened to white poeple after minority and majority status changed.
