Kaine Down By 13 To Allen. It Is Time.
Cry ‘Havoc!’ And Let Slip Jim Moran.

by Smitty Roanoke College delivers some unhelpful news for Kaine. swacgirl notes: Kaine did Virginians no favor as governor, and he has been closely associated with Democratic President Barack Obama’s liberal overreaching government policies including ObamaCare, something he claims to be proud of. In Virginia? What to do? For the Democrats, there is only one […]

Isn’t VA’s Outgoing Senator Enough Of A Progressive Tool?

by Smitty Legal Insurrection posts a clip of Tim “I did not ride Mark Warner’s coattails” Kaine, who would like to replace Sen. Jim “Yeah, I got elected on ‘macaca’” Webb as the junior Senator from VA. The bandwidth and the interest to deal with this video just ain’t there. I won’t even embed it. […]

The 10′ Fairy Sculpture At The Mark Center: A Jim Moran Symbol?

Virginia: Jamie Radtke For U.S. Senate? George Allen Had Better Guard His Six

by Smitty Though only a Virginian for the past twelve years, it’s hard to avoid a passion for the country if you spend much time in the Commonwealth. Patriotic radiation coming from Mount Vernon, perhaps. It comes as no surprise, therefore, to see someone like Jamie Radtke appear on the scene and command attention. Waking […]

Best VA Political Week Of The Year

by Smitty I know CPAC is at full roar, while I sit out in the cold, where I can catch enough bandwidth for a post. What a week in VA news. Cuccinelli tilting the SCOTUS windmill-style for the ObamaCare case. VMI looking really creepy over Islam. And then ol’ “Born Fightin’” Webb decides that fighting […]

Virginia Muslim Institute?

Somebody mentioned this in the comments the other day when I was up to my neck in Egypt blogging, but I just saw it again at 1389 Blog: VMI is celebrating the Muslim invasion and occupation of Spain in 711 AD. And then I read this: The March 23-25 celebration entitled “711-2011: East Meets West” […]
