McAuliffe Hits Cuccinelli On Women's Issues In Virginia Debate
September 25, 2013, 9:58 PM EDT
Democrat Terry McAuliffe sought to hone in on issues that might widen the polling gap between him and his opponent, Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli (R), among women voters, during a gubernatorial debate on Wednesday night.
During multiple questions by moderator and MSNBC host Chuck Todd, McAuliffe tried to paint Cuccinelli as a conservative extremist who's out of touch on women's issues and gay rights.
"He sponsored personhood legislation that would outlaw most forms of contraception, would make the pill illegal," McAuliffe said. "He's referred to gay Virginians as self-destructive and soulless human beings. He was one of only three attorney generals when the Violence Against Women's was being reauthorized in the United States Congress -- 47 attorney generals signed the letter -- violence against women, not controversial. He is one of three that refused to sign it. It has been a pattern."
McAuliffe then linked Cuccinelli's stances on these issues as harmful to Virginia's economy, pointing in particular to a large government contracting company Northrop Grumman Corporation, which employes more than 40,000 employees in the Washington, D.C. area.

Im curious to see if he's figured out the funding for that lynchpin of his agenda.
