Gerry Connolly Sucks, Part 62

What do Lori Alexander and Gerry Connolly have in common?

They are the only two 11th District candidates that have been endorsed by ZERO of the 286 Democrats serving in the U.S. House and U.S Senate.

None of their potential colleagues want to serve with them.

Pathetic.

Ben, I think you need to start using Roman numerals and call this "Connolly still sucks, part LXI."

At least it would add variety what long ago became a boring shtick.

[Not Larry Sabato]

There's only two more parts Rowhey.

Come on Ben. Use the Roman numerals. It will make it more punchy.

Gerry Connolly has received the endorsements of dozens of elected officials in northern Virginia.

Most of Byrne's endorsements are from "former" local officials.

When are you going to report that Connolly beat Byrne 57% to 34% in the FCDC straw poll?

What do Leslie Byrne and Lori Alexander have in common?

They both lost the FCDC straw poll of Democratic activists.

Could someone explain to me why a man who refuses to help those who helped him, and turns a blind eye to supporters except when he needs support is liked by...... well anyone? If someone could explain that to me I'd appreciate it a lot

Connolly equals Effectiveness, Electability, Accomplishments

Hillary and Leslie should plan a vacation together...they're both going to lose. Ben, maybe you should tag along since you don't support fellow Dems Obama or Gerry...

[Andrew]

Anonymous all I have to say to that is you obviously went to a school funded by Gerry Connolly where they failed to teach you math and correct grammar. Just remember its not your fault.

Byrne has only been endorsed by ONE Congressman: Jim Webb.

Here's some of Gerry Connolly's endorsements.

"The Service Employees International Union and the United Food and Commercial Workers Local 400 announced recently that they are endorsing Gerry Connolly, Chairman of the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors, in the Democratic Primary for Virginia's 11th Congressional District."

"Virginia State Senators George Barker (D-39), Janet Howell (D-32), Patsy Ticer (D-30) and Richard Saslaw (D-35) are all supporting Chairman Connolly in his campaign for Congress in Virginia's 11th Congressional District."

"The Gerry Connolly for Congress campaign announced today that Chairman Connolly has been been endorsed by seven area members of the Virginia House of Delegates.
[...]
Ken Plum -- 36th District
Jim Scott -- 53rd District
David Bulova -- 37th District
Vivian Watts -- 39th District

Paul Nichols -- 51st District"

"The Gerry Connolly for Congress campaign announced today that Chairman Connolly has been endorsed by twenty-nine local elected officials from across the 11th district and Northern Virginia. Connolly was endorsed by officials in every jurisdiction in Northern Virginia."

"The Gerry Connolly for Congress campaign announced today that Connolly has received the endorsement of the Fairfax County Professional Firefighters and Paramedics (Local 2068), the Prince William Professional Fire Fighters (Local 2598) and the International Association of Fire Fighters."

"Congressman Herb Harris -- 8th Congressional District (former)"

May Madness rocks!!! Two more go to!!!

[Timothy Watson]

"Madness" is definitely the right word there Hokie.

The fact still remains Tim, Leslie still has some congressional support while Gerry has NONE. There is little reason to get so defensive about a factual statement. Its kind of like me saying "The sky is blue" then you running in yelling "Well Yea but the grass is green". It doesn't bring much to the table, it certainly doesn't make anyone care anymore, it really just makes you sound in desperate need for attention.

What is that thing on Gerry's head? Has he joined a gang?

Wait a minute... is it orange? On an Irish Catholic boy from a pink collar Boston burb? For shame!
