Cuccinelli Pouts After Losshttp://www.baconsrebellion.com/2013/11/cuccinelli-pouts-after-loss.html
By Peter Galuszka
The latest from the parallel universes of Virginia politics: failed Republican gubernatorial candidate Kenneth Cuccinelli is pouting like a child while planning his next step.
According to an hour-long interview he gave to The Washington Post, Cuccinelli is lying low and eating dinners at home several nights a week which he finds comforting. Otherwise, it is sour grapes:
He did not make the customary phone call to the winner, and he has not made any public appearances. His chief strategist, Chris LaCivita, has complained that the Republican Governors Association and other GOP donors prematurely stopped giving to Cuccinellis campaign at a time when a victory was still possible. That has led some observers to call Cuccinelli a sore loser.
....
And, once again, were presented with myths. One is that Cuccinellis abrasive and abusive personality and politics had nothing to do with his defeat. It was the ill-timed government shutdowns and Republican governors. It was the biased news media. Not to worry: hell nail Warner on Obamacare (presumably if it isnt figured out when that campaign starts).

I was home for dinner four nights in a row last week, said the 45-year-old father of seven. I dont remember the last time I was home four nights in a row for dinner. I like being home for dinner.
And I liked sending him home for dinner too.
This is my favorite picture of him.
