Bad news for supporters of Ted Cruz in the 2016 Presidential nominating contest. Cruz may be mathematically eliminated as early as […]

Did you ever get an answer to the VERY important question you posed to our VA Representatives? Specifically from Delegate Chris Peace who wrote the bill for reasons that look VERY shady on the surface? The question regarding HB1147 that supposedly allowed us “to keep our Health Insurance plan if we like our Health Health […]

Today is voting day throughout the Commonwealth. Exciting day for me. I remember primary day well in 1989. I did not have a professional campaign manager nor did I have conservative groups behind me.

I (Sandy) have known Del. Chris Peace for sometime. In fact, even when I was not in his district, I was impressed with him very much. Delegate Peace has become a leader in the House of Delegates.

Delegate Bob Marshall has asked Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli (and the Republican Gubernatorial Candidate-in-Waiting) for a legal opinion on the massive tax increase bill pushed by Bob McDonnell and masquerading as a Transportation Bill (43% goes to grow government) as well as McDonnell’s plan to advance ObamaCare in the Commonwealth. BOTH ARE UNCONSTITUTIONAL according […]

When I ran for delegate many years ago, part of my platform was to reform the Virginia divorce laws.
