He’s not big on unwed mothers or no-fault divorce either.

The Left is having a field day with Virginia Republican gubernatorial candidate Bob McDonnell‘s law school thesis (PDF) from CBN University. Founded by Pat Robertson and named for his Christian Broadcasting Network, the school is now known as Regent University. TPMMuckraker has the juiciest excerpts and this DNC statement out today:

In Bob McDonnell’s preferred Virginia, women would be stigmatized for choosing to work outside the home, access to contraception would be all but banned and women would be denied equal pay for equal work. In Bob McDonnell’s preferred Virginia, the medical decisions of women and their doctors would be criminalized and the victims of rape and incest would have no medical recourse. While Virginians want to keep the Commonwealth moving forward, these devastating revelations prove that Bob McDonnell wants to take Virginia backwards.

And to be clear, these were not the musings of young student, but rather a 34-year old married man on the cusp of elected office who would go on to doggedly pursue the extreme agenda he called for once in that office.

By undermining his main argument that he’s in the main stream of Virginians, not only has this revelation laid bare McDonnell’s real agenda, but is nothing short of a game changer in this election.

What does the Right have to say? I’d hazard the guess that in their heart of hearts many are still very much in sync with the McDonnell of 1989.
