Steve Shannon, who is running for Attorney General, doesn't know what the Attorney General actually does

Steve Shannon's staff got physical with a blogger recording his non answer to the question "what does the Attorney General do?" this is not a good campaign strategy.

DUM DUM DUM


Steve Shannon doesn't know anything about being Attorney General and yet he wants the job.

Don't we have enough clueless politicians in office?

Ken Cuccinelli Lectures Steve Shannon on integrity

State Senator Ken Cuccinelli, Republican Nominee for Attorney General called on his Democrat opponent today to return any and all campaign contributions to his campaign from the Service Employees International Union or SEIU and condemn all ACORN activity.

"Steve Shannon has received tens of thousands of dollars in campaign contributions from the SEIU - whose link and close working relationship with the renegade organization ACORN is well documented" said Senator Ken Cuccinelli. "SEIU's long standing financial support and its affiliation as an allied organization of ACORN across the country requires a repudiation of the relationship" added Cuccinelli.

"I applaud the United States Congress for moving to de-fund ACORN of any tax payer dollars, a move that should have occurred years ago. ACORN's well documented illegal activities, including voter fraud, should give all Americans pause. Voters have a right to know that ACORN affiliated and allied organizations are funding Democrat campaigns this year in Virginia, and what do they expect in return?" concluded Cuccinelli.

ya know what would be a hot presidential ticket? Cuccinelli and Palin!
ohh baby! now that would really make liberal butts twitch! hehe
