Ken Cuccinelli

Ken Cuccinelli is a polarizing figure, and I will not pretend otherwise, but I am interested in the shape of his career more than the partisanship. A University of Virginia lawyer who rose to senior roles in homeland security, he is the sort of conviction politician who never hides his flag. Whatever one makes of his positions, that clarity makes him memorable in a field full of hedging. I tend to respect people who stake out a clear stance and accept the consequences, regardless of where I land on the issues. His blend of legal grounding and ideological certainty is, at minimum, a distinctive combination worth noting.
