Is this a parody? Talk to your fact checker for a bit about DaveBratVA7th and his lies.

This is how RepDaveBrat reaches out to the other side... 🙄🙄🙄

DaveBratVA7th does not reach out to the other side. He plays to his base and tries to suppress Democratic and Independent voting via negative advertising.

If by “reach out to both sides” u mean Dave Brat constantly trolls his Dem constituents, then yeah. Spanberger has been working on R and I votes for sure, tho.

also psst, you refer to her parents/family as 'the Spanbergers' but that's her husband's name

If DaveBratVA7th reaches out to anyone who doesn't agree with them, it's to slap them across the face. He considers us his enemies, and treats us as such.

Take a minute, and view Dave Brat's current campaign ads. He lies about Abigail Spanberger, at EVERY SINGLE OPPORTUNITY. That is not 'reaching out'. This headline is a LIE! PLEASE, correct your work!

Read Dave Brat's Facebook and Twitter pages over the last 3 years! There has been NO OUTREACH to us! None! None whatsoever! Any assertion to the contrary, is an ugly falsehood.

Dave Brat has cast his own constituents as enemies of our country. We have been perpetually lied to. We have been perpetually deflected. Brat casts himself as a 'victim' of our values and morality. How dare you cast him as one who has 'reached out' to ANY of us! That. Is. A. LIE!

Nice try,Washington Post. We know who Brat is and what he stands for by his voting record, not his campaign words when he realizes his opponent is going to beat him. For example: Brat claims he supports pre-existing conditions. Then why did he vote to repeatedly take that away?

This headline is irresponsible. It amplifies a demonstrably false, damaging deceitful characterization. I live in the 7th District. Dave Brat has done NOTHING to reach out to constituent opposition. He has mocked, dismissed, & projected endless character assassinations upon us.

Well Spanberger has. Dave Brat drew up a “Shit List” of constituents that aren’t allowed to interact with him, in violation of their First Amendment right to petition the government for redress of grievances.

This is a great article. But the headline is really misleading. Congressman Brat has not made efforts to build bridges and connect w/ constituents whom hold different views. Ms. Spanberger has managed to attract lots of Republican and Independent voters.

She is the best!

Abigail Spanberger hopes to beat Rep. Dave Brat — and stand up for the CIAAbigail Spanberger, a former CIA officer who is running for Congress in Virginia, is defending America’s intelligence agencies against attacks from President Trump. Abigail, you have generalised POTUS Presidents criticisms as 'attacks from President against US intelligence agencies' The only time he has criticised the FBI or the CIA was when upper echelon G-men, were involved in the HRC Cover-ups. Your remarks will not get you a seat in Va. Is anyone tracing his cellphone and who is intercepting it? CIA, please tell us you are.
