Yancey should carry the bowl around with him everywhere he goes during the Assembly session

I hope all those teapartty ideology purity types who have denounced Yancey as a RINO or squishy moderate will now appreciate the fact he did not concede and stood by his party to give it a majority in Richmond. We are stronger united than divided and need to give thanks to Yancey and all Republicans regardless of their differences with the activists on certain issues, ie transportation funding which Yancey backed in 2013

  Tea party does not mean ideologically pure. But it does mean standing by your promises. And one must wonder if Yancey’s race would have been so close if he had filled out the VCDL survey

    Well by that logic then I guess Dave Brat isn’t tea party either. Where’s his bills on cutting entitlements and fiscal responsibility? He can’t even get a post office named in his district. So who’s calling Dave to let him know he’s Establishment(tm)? And no… being legislatively impotent doesn’t count as being fiscally responsible.
