The Obligatory "Ben Was Kicked Out of the Democratic Party" Post

In 2005, Ben actually thought he could be a member of the General Assembly, so he ran for the House of Delegates (it probably would have been the end of this great Commonwealth had he made it there). Luckily, he ran against Dave Marsden, a moderate Democrat and former Republican, in the Democratic Primary.

To make a long story short, he lost or dropped out or something and ended up endorsing Republican Michael Golden on Not Larry Sabato. Michael Golden, mind you, was about as conservative as they come, probably to the right of Jerry Kilgore.

Michael Golden took that post from the former Democratic candidate and did a mailing with it:

Of course that post and that mailing prompted this from the Fairfax County Democratic Party:

Ben hilariously claims that he is going to sue someone over this because he wasn't actually kicked out of the party, instead he just decided not to pay his dues. Yeah. Ben Tribbett is going to sue someone over something they said about him.

Either way, Ben actually got kicked out or they tried to kick him out. Like I said, no one wants anything to do with this guy.
