Lucky voters in Virginia
While Newticles and Ricky Good Hair may be saying all the right things to curry favor with the Republican/Teabagger base, they are missing a few essentials for any electoral campaign. One is the organization on the ground that does all the grunt work needed. The other is sufficient valid signatures to get their names on the ballot, something the grunts do for you.
Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich failed to collect enough signatures to appear on the Virginia primary ballot, the Republican Party of Virginia announced Saturday morning, leaving the longtime Virginia resident without a place on the state's ballot and raising questions about his campaign's organization.When you are voting for a president, the first thing you want is someone who can get the job done.
Gingrich, as well as Texas Gov. Rick Perry, did not meet the state's requirement of 10,000 signatures and, therefore, did not qualify for the ballot, the Virginia GOP said via Twitter.
The state GOP announced Perry's failure to qualify late Friday.
