Compare the record regarding women with Deeds and McDonnell
Here’s an example of how Creigh Deeds treats women.
“I think I’ve made myself very clear young lady.”
He was speaking to Chelyen Davis (Fredricksburg Free Lance-Star) — one of the most experienced members of the Capitol press corps.
Here’s the quote in context…where you can clearly see Creigh getting frustrated over questions about his outrageous magically appearing money machine:
The reality is Bob McDonnell participated in an academic exercise twenty years ago about the virtues of the family. And, in his political career he has hired women to serve as senior staff members in both his campaign (such as Janet Polarek – Campaign Manager in 2005, Chief Operations Officer in 2009) and the Office of Attorney General (including Polarek and Lisa Hicks-Thomas, Deputy Attorney General). And, as has been well-documented, his daughters are successful working women, including a daughter who led Soldiers in Iraq.
To my knowledge, Creigh Deeds has no senior women on his campaign staff that includes Campaign Strategist Mo Elleithee, Campaign Manger Joe Abbey, Communications Director Mike Gehrke, and Press Secretary Jared Leopold – all major positions filled by men.
Seems one candidate walks-the-walk on equal opportunity and the others true nature is on display when under pressure.
Maybe that’s why former head of “Virginians for Mark Warner” Judy Ford Wason supports Bob McDonnell.
She must know Deeds true opinion on women.

please keep on bringing it up!!! Like the new poll?
I’m getting to that next.
I guess someone finally realized that Bob McDonnell has a problem with voters based on his “academic exercise”. Funny he would like to spin this as academic, but then says his views have changed. So, he admits that he believed what he wrote while saying at the same time that he never really felt that way. Where’s Joe Wilson when you need him?

Creigh Deeds, the somewhat less than intelligent candidate for the Virginia Governorship, hosts a post-debate wrapup session with reporters that is pretty stunning in its own right.
Let’s see if, after watching this video, you can figure out if Cre…
