Today Ken Cuccinelli’s surrogates at the Republican Party of Virginia attacked the Silver Line Metro extension to Dulles that theirparty’s own Governor Bob McDonnell called “one of the most important, if not the most important infrastructure projects in the country.” 

The Republican attack on a transportation project that is creating jobs and will get more commuters out of traffic is directly in line with Ken Cuccinelli’s own statements urging leaders to “kill” the extension. Those sentiments mirror his repeated efforts to kill the bipartisan transportation compromise that McDonnell and legislators passed earlier this year.
