He was on FIRE. Said all the right things about Trump and how to fight him.
And he has in incredible record in Virginia.
He's also the guy who's responsible for paper ballots in VA (which helped get ALL the massive turnout votes counted).
AFAIC, he ought to run for President.

(5,210 posts)Wasn't he a big money raiser for Bill Clinton??
No Presidential ambitions, then?? Given his record in VA, I think he'd be GREAT.

(183,014 posts)He's done a really good job as Governor. Tight tight with the money. Lots,of improvements in processes including getting rid of touch screen voting machines.

(5,210 posts)I'd never been a fan before, and considered him a lightweight. But that is an incredible record for a governor. And that kind of executive ability is important in the White House. So is that level of fight.

(5,210 posts)Is it natural charisma, like some politicians have (e.g. Bill Clinton)?

(183,014 posts)That's apparently how he is all the time.
