Maddow: Republicans in ‘complete chaos’ on LGBT rights and women’s issues

Thursday night on “The Rachel Maddow Show,” host Rachel Maddow struck down the myth that the Democratic and Republican Parties are just slightly different versions of the same thing, particularly when it comes to social issues.

In Virginia, Democrat Terry McAuliffe won the governorship on Tuesday, but he does not officially take office until his swearing in, which will take place in early 2014. He has already made it clear, however, that he intends to strike down one of current Gov. Bob McDonnell’s executive orders, a law that made it legal to fire public employees in Virginia on the basis of their sexual orientation.
