“Virginia families are struggling financially with 10-plus percent unemployment and fallen home values. When Virginians are concerned about whether they will get another paycheck, government should not be spending time figuring out ways to make the people’s checkbooks that much harder to balance.” Doug Wilder, in [...]
General Assembly members should change this.
Yesterday’s election between Jeff McWaters and Rosemary Wilson included tons of advertising and spending. Rumors of how much was spent, and where it come from, abound.

It's been a busy weekend at the 2009 Republican Advance in Williamsburg ... so busy I haven't had time to blog. I've taken photos and notes and will be posting about the event. The Falls Chamber of Commerce has had a particularly good year in a very difficult economic climate.

Montana Sen. Max Baucus tried to nominate his boo (that's what the kids call a girlfriend) to be a federal attorney in the Big Sky State. But apparently it makes "no sense" to have an ethics inquery by a Congress that promised to drain the swamp of corruption.

Today’s 8th Senate nomination results do not bode well for Ben Loyola and his bid for the Congressional nomination.
Rosemary Wilson attempted to make Jeff McWaters’ alleged belief in mandated health care the central focus in her campaign; McWaters focused on the economy. The results? [...]
I haven't spent as much time as I used too - or want too - talking about some of the great history books out there. Right now I'm working on three different books: Sarah Palin's "Going Rogue," a 2005 biography of former heavyweight champ Rocky Marciano, and a delightful book [...]

A healthy margin of victory sends Republican Jeff McWaters as the nominee to replace Ken Stolle in the Virginia Senate. An expensive and nasty race full of negative mailpieces and radio ads, plus some despicable blogging by some jerk whose name I can’t remember, ended with [...]
First, I want to give folks a heads up on a three-week project I”m working on. It’ll be an insight as to what I’m learning as a newly-minted supervisor in Fluvanna County, Virginia and what the process entails, how the major players interact, and what problems localities face from both [...]
