Unfortunately all the links I found were in the category of...

Politics 

If the Governor and Lieutenant Governor can't serve two terms back to back, the Attorney General of Virginia probably shouldn't, either. Jason Miyares should have let someone else share the ticket with Reid and Our Winsome. But he's eligible to run for any slot on the ticket in the next election, as are they, and here's one good reason to vote for him:


More generally...This is the kind of thing that's likely to derail the Trump Train. Hillary Rodham Clinton is not, in any of these clips, presenting ideas that were ever likely to be good for our nation. That is why she's getting hard questions and heckling. In one clip she's actually trying to brazen it out after four people were killed on her watch--which takes a high level of brazen-ness, to be sure. HRC was old enough at the time to have shed all of her lifetime supply of tears, but a little grief for those four people would have been appropriate. But she's being stereotyped and slandered as "shrill" and "unhinged" simply because she's female. Whatever might be said about the acts and ideas under discussion in these video clips, HRC is a model of levelheaded, cool-tempered, low-voiced, even ladylike tone in each of them. 

Men, it's probably best if you don't even try to describe any woman's voice or manner. Women know what "shrill" and "unhinged" sound like--we heard examples of both coming out of Minnesota this winter--and if you think HRC, in any of these videos, comes even close, you are just showing fear and bigotry. This is how women sound when we may be catching hate, but we are absolutely in control. In the last video, where the young man really needs to be removed from the room by the fat, out-of-shape man who approaches him but fails to do anything, HRC's voice does border on being "strident," but that is justified by the situation. These videos show how women are supposed to sound.


Trump is failing to carry out his mandate:


Not that Virginia's D legislature is doing any better. This is disgusting. Anyone who wants to go on using paraquat, now, deserves Parkinson's Disease. Unfortunately his neighbors are equally likely to get the disease.
