A tweet from the Virginia Democrats was called to our attention this morning, and it promotes a speaker for the party's "virtual convention" coming up soon:
1861 is here - Vote Freitas for VA-07 ~ @TwitchyTeam Here is a fun thread for you ...
Virginia Democrats ~ We're honored to have @GovernorVA speaking at our virtual state convention coming up in just a few days! Be sure to stream it live at https://dpvastate2020.com this weekend.
Yep, that's really something, especially considering what that same organization said just last year. How's this for a shot & chaser?
The shot, from February of last year:
And the chaser, this week:
Virginia Democrats ~ We're honored to have @GovernorVA speaking at our virtual state convention coming up in just a few days! Be sure to stream it live at https://dpvastate2020.com this weekend.
Wow.
Bob Mann ~ So when you said that you demand that he resign immediately, you were just kidding?
Apparently.
Ed O'Keefe ~ What a difference a year or so makes ...
Stephen L. Miller ~ I mean just so we're all clear here: everything from college mascots to syrup logos are being cancelled because Black Lives Matter and the @vademocrats are honored to welcome a guy who made a hobby out of wearing blackface, and our media is *DEAD* silent on it.
Only in Pictures ~ Up is down.
Garren Shipley ~ Wait, this is the guy you called on to resign, right? Or is that a different governor?
The Virginia GOP fired back this way:
Virginia GOP ~ "Honored"
