Regent in the governor’s hizouse , or running for it anyway. I don’t think there’s too much value in holding 20 year-old master’s thesis against anyone (I skipped reading the article til TPM excerpted it and I saw the Regents connection), but this one is radical enough that McDonnell should have to go through and explain exactly which right-wing extremist things he still believes and which ones he doesn’t.
