Glenn Youngkin, GOP nominee for Virginia governor, goes mum on guns and abortion [More]
But...but...but he's always showed such commitment to principle...
And who hasn't heard this disingenuous excuse-making every time the party proffers a weasel?
But some conservative Republicans — hungry for a win after losing every statewide contest for the past dozen years — seem to be greeting Youngkin’s messaging shift as a smart way to appeal to a wider, general-election audience.
Who else are we gonna vote for, right? Eat it and be grateful.
And for some industrial-grade weasel-wording, how's this for an excuse for refusing to answer NRA's questionnaire?
Youngkin’s campaign spokesperson Macaulay Porter provided the following statement Wednesday. "Glenn is a gunowner and a lifetime member of the NRA who will defend Virginians' Second Amendment rights. That’s one reason conservatives and groups like The Middle Resolution are supporting him. Politicians love to fill out surveys, but just like President Trump, Glenn isn’t a politician and isn’t spending all his time filling out surveys. Glenn is traveling Virginia, meeting with voters, and telling them exactly what he believes. The best way to protect your Second Amendment rights is to nominate Glenn so he can win in November. "
Oh, well, then I take back everything I said.
