In his column in Sunday's
Richmond Times-Dispatch, political reporter Jeff Schapiro wrote:
What Terry McAuliffe and Ken Cuccinelli say,
to whom and how they say it, speaks to the direction of the
gubernatorial campaign. Some of it is noise. A lot is dog-whistle
politics: shrill, high-frequency babble tailored to the ears of targeted
voters.
All the negativity hasn't been lost on Virginia's Lieutenant Governor
Bill Bolling who wrote on
Facebook:
Jeff Schapiro does a pretty good job capturing
the essence of this year's gubernatorial campaign, which is
characterized by way too much negativity and way too little substance. I
still believe the candidate who can project a positive message in the
final weeks of the campaign is the candidate who will win.
A positive message from our 2013 candidates? What a novel idea.
