Virginia's Winsome Earl-Sears: "I AM SPEAKING!"

Surely this must be the most meme-able cut of the 2025 off-year election. Every time her opponent for governor, Abigail Spanberger, played this ad, I busted out laughing and repeated, “I AM SPEAKING!”

No! I am speaking!

I AM SPEAKING!

The Associated Press and CNN have called the race for Spanberger, who got an astonishing 90% of the Black vote against a Black candidate.

The voters have spoken.

Would love to hear how the MAGA friendly media spin that result. :upside_down_face:

Ima go out on a limb and say their spin will be sooooooper racist.

I’m speaking, and so’s my wife!

Trump didn’t endorse her. Probably because she’s a Black woman. She certainly did enough to run on his record.

She explained away the lack of a Trump endorsement gracefully.

She also used his playbook: attempt to make her opponent “radioactive”.

No matter how much MAGAbots attempt to make Democrats look bad, they will always be worse!

Ah, yes, I get it now.

Losesome’s radio ads were so painfully stupid and whiny. “They HATE us! And they lie their butts off!” For sure tied up the entire unraised 12-year-old racist of suspect parentage demographic.

Winsome, lose some.

I mean, that was a lay-up, but I still like it :slight_smile:

It would make a good headline.

But without the comma.

When I went to vote yesterday, there was a sign from her side saying something like “Keep a good thing going!”.

I said to the people manning the Democratic table outside “Well, for varying definitions of good….”.
