He is as Third Way slimy and lying as they come, as his record of corruption *already* showed even prior to the election. The first thing he did upon being elected was to abandon his campaign talk about using the budget to expand Medicaid in Virginia. He is now insisting he still wants an expansion, but he has decided he wants to work legislatively with Republicans, instead, so he is warning that it will take a long time.

I frankly do not expect an expansion of Medicaid in Virginia under this Third Way snake.
