At 1506 11.6.2009 I got a robocall from Marianne Horinko inviting me to her campaign kick-off on Tuesday.
Game On!
Posted in Elections: 2010, Va Sen 37 [...] Keith Fimian held a press conference in front of Gerry Connolly’s district office today where he delivered a tough critique of the current 2,000 plus page monstrosity of a bill that the House is debating. You’d think Democrats would at least allow consideration of some of the common-sense alternatives that [...]
Now not only is this a debut post, but this is also the best breakdown of winners and losers you’re going to read all week. Trust me — this’ll be good stuff!
LOSERS:
The Washington Post — Bloggers and the MSM have had a tense relationship from [...]
Democrats are beginning to line-up against Pelosi-care…21 so far, and probably more as we go throughout the day. Here’s Virginia’s U.S. Rep. Eric Cantor this morning on Fox News explaining the current situation:

"Cinemaphiles: The Byrd Theatre" is a really interesting documentary from 2007 about Richmond's Byrd Theatre. It also looks back briefly to the Biograph Theater and the last ditch attempts to keep that legendary small arthouse theater open. See the documentary here. [...] Not much of a surprise here, but the behavior of Gerry Connolly just seems like the gift that keeps on giving to bloggers.
Connolly has been telling people that he wasn’t sure how he would vote on the monstrosity of the ObamaCare bill and wanted to get more information and see [...]
The gunman who killed 12 people today at Ft. Hood appears, based on current media reports, to be Army psychiatrist Nidal Hasan who was listed as a participant in [...]

Just when you thought that Health Care Reform could not get any more Draconian :
Today, Ranking Member of the House Ways and Means Committee Dave Camp (R-MI) released a letter from the non-partisan Joint Committee on Taxation (JCT) confirming that the failure to comply with the individual mandate to buy [...]
I am not quite sure how to post this. This information comes from the Drudge Report via the Republicans. And, we know how the Republicans in Congress tend to only fend for what is most expedient. But, when they reveal hidden truths behind the AWESOME Marxist totalitarian regime of [...]
As if exit polls indicating that Virginia voters did not vote based on their approval or disapproval of Barack Obama, combined with analysis like this, weren't enough to kill the idiotic "meme" that Creigh Deeds lost the Virginia governor's election "because of Barack Obama," how about this?
Rather than simply congratulating Bob McDonnell on his overwhelming victory, I'd like to suggest that, starting now and for the next four years, we accord the man presidential treatment. Specifically, I'm talking about the kind of treatment that Republicans have been giving our president over the past year. [...] It’s crunch time folks:
Well the good news is that the Democrats are saying they don’t have the votes. Probably one of the reasons why they don’t have the votes is because people are finding all about what’s in HR 3962.
They’re objecting to:
Higher taxes on individuals and businesses [...]
Yet more lovely details from the House health care bill:
Today, Ranking Member of the House Ways and Means Committee Dave Camp (R-MI) released a letter from the non-partisan Joint Committee on Taxation (JCT) confirming that the failure to comply with the individual mandate to buy health insurance contained in [...]
I heard an interview with David Plouffe, who managed the Obama 2008 Presidential campaign. He was talking about his early years. And, almost as a throwaway, he added that in one of his early jobs, he sold knives door to door.
Over the years, one of the tidbits I learned when [...]
Citizens will once again march on the Capitol to have their voices heard. Sadly, I can’t make it because of my Daughters of the American Revolution meeting, but I will be there in spirit! Y’all go and let us know all the details! [...] 
I had the pleasure of visiting Annapolis, Md., a couple of weekends ago, a city I had not seen in maybe 20 years. After watching Navy trounce Wake Forest in football, my family and I spent the night at the Governor Calvert House across the street [...] 
Judge Andrew Napalitano filled in for Glenn Beck this week and actually had some decent, intelligent guests.
Like Peter Schiff and John Stossel:
8th: Jeff McWaters or Rosemary Wilson seem to be a lock whoever gets the nomination
37th: Republican side is set with Steve Hunt, Will Nance, and Marianne Horinko. Dave Marsden looks to be the likely candidate in the 37th distirct as David Bulova has ducked out and Janet Oleszek was apparently [...]
They still don’t have the votes yet:
WASHINGTON — Amid intense lobbying by the Obama administration, House Democratic leaders struggled Friday for the final votes needed to pass sweeping health care legislation, working to ease concerns among Hispanic holdouts and abortion foes.
“We’re very close” to having enough votes to prevail, [...]
Everyone I talk to that is politically inclined around here say that Kai has his sights set higher than mayor. Well, he’s not going to be the delegate or state senator….so I guess he’ll have to move.
On a related note….I asked someone at First Fridays who was looking to run [...]
It looks like members of Congress will have to state their position on funding abortion in the health care reform bill.
Hibachi Sushi & Supreme BuffetEveryone who has read this blog over the last 6 years knows that Matt and I have not agreed on too many things and because of that I have never supported his campaigns or even voted for him.
George Allen’s comment on Matt’s “wholesomeness” yesterday really hit a nerve with me. [...]
