Ran along several of these signs yesterday while driving the Augusta area and it reminded me of what both Emmett and another local State Senator told me recently. Both of them often come into where I work and back when they were headed to Richmond after Governor McAuliffe's use of his veto-pen, they both told me the same thing with a smile.
"Don't have enough votes anyway"...
Is what I heard from both of these Republican State Senators when we discussed several of the items that Terry-Mac used his veto pen on. Both times I got the feeling that these Senators had no interest in fighting for what the voters elected them to do and with that it's time for "Career Incumbents" to go...
Besides these signs (Poor quality and design) I have heard several times radio messages telling us how Hanger continues to fight for low spending and low taxes, and other "Conservative" issues. But yet Emmett has shown several times he is more than willing to sign up with and support the Democrats when he should be fighting for the "Conservative issues" that he claims to support during campaign time...
Truth is Emmett as well as the other State Senator will cake walk in the next election. Hanger has two GOP primary opponents that will "Split" the vote thus handing Emmett the primary election and continue his "Career" position. Hanger also has the cash that the two challengers lack and let's not forget the "Local media" that also looks out for their own interest. The voters have handed the GOP the Majority in the House & Senate both nationally and in the State of Virginia both but with "Career politicians" our conservative values and policies continue to lose ground...
Time to remove the incumbents but not going to happen this time and memory of a challenge from within his own party will be short lived for Emmett once he wins the primary.....
