2009 Virginia Gubernatorial Election, Bob McDonnell, Creigh Deeds, Progressive Objectivity & Republican-Conservatism Mockery of Jeffersonian Analysis

Under a Republican-Conservatism "less Government" administration The Commonwealth of Virginia has since 1995 committed in excess of half a billion dollars to building Prisons across the state and particularly in it's most economically marginalized and backwards areas. Not only has the money been committed but a guarantee in the form of Parole abolition that the Prisons will bee filled has been enacted (Virginia abolished Parole in 1995).

Virginia's Parole abolition by the then Republican Governor George Allen (who lost a 2008 U.S. Senatorial Re-Election bid due to a Racist remark caught on tape) was under the recidivism logic of penological suppositions, that a sizable amount of crime is committed by released Prisoners. So the Republican administration of Allen and Co. sold Virginia's citizens the impractical bill of a Virginia Gulag as solution to "Fix" once and for all the question of crime in Virginia, Which despite bankrupting the Treasury hasn''t.

The above narrative is necessary because once again the Commonwealth of Virginia finds itself faced with a choice of the political-economic practice Republican-Conservatism in it's 2009 Gubernatorial election between the Republican candidate Bob McDonnell and the Democrat Creigh Deeds and the Progressive objectivity of political practice that has less to do with pandering to reactionism and more with structuring the realization of a Virginia Human-Condition that is inclusive of it's diverse and varied cultural and social make up. Republican-Conservatism lacks the intellectual rigor and motive force to do so. A reaction to asymmetrical consequences cannot and should not be the sort analysis Political-Economy is structured upon which is what Republican-Conservatism uses.

If the people of Virginia have any sort of Progressive inclination they will relegate Republican-Conservatism and it's distortions of the "less Government" polemics with it's faith and family values hypocrisy to the discredited sophistry of it's antebellum affection and spare the Commonwealth of Virginia another periodic mockery of Jeffersonian analysis and elect the Democratic Creigh Deeds in the 2009 Gubernatorial election.
