Bearing Drift Contest and open thread: who will you vote for VA AG (GOP nominee)?
By JR Hoeft | Thursday, May 28th, 2009 | Catch-AllOpen thread. John Brownlee, Ken Cuccinelli, or David Foster? Have fun. Be nice.
Also…predict the ballot and the percentage (i.e. Brownlee wins on the 3rd ballot, 51-49). Closest person wins “their pick” from the Bearing Drift store. If a tie, the winner will be selected by a drawing. Be sure to leave your email address in the comment form (it will not be displayed, but will be used to contact you if you win.)

Britt – I’m actually hoping you guys pick Cuccinelli.

and Cuccinelli!
Don’t forget, these votes will be weighted, too.
I’ll leave the predictions up to everyone else, but I’m pulling hard for Cuccinelli.
I’m voting for Bolling and Brownlee.
