Usually, Virginia goes against the presidency, electing a governor from the other party. As a moderate, McAuliffe stood a slim chance of bucking that trend again, until he inserted his whole foot, into his mouth, with that idiotic comment about <taxpaying> parents having no say in school curriculum. As to demographics having swung blue, how many times did we hear that about Texas? The well educated and employed people, the Democrats are counting on, are mostly parents, for whom safe schools are important, but so is school curriculum. McAuliffe should have apologized to parents, and said he misspoke. By not doing so, he's kissed any chance of winning goodbye.
