I suppose Tim Kaine thinks we Virginian’s forgot how he increased College Tuition by 25% and ran the state into more debt than anyone but Obama can accumulate. Did you forget that we used to call him Tim “The Absentee Governor” Kaine because he was off in a bro-mance with Barack? Or that he didn’t manage […]

In stunning but not entirely unexpected news, Del. Robert G. Marshall (R-Dist 13), will run for United States Senate in the June primary. I am not yet endorsing my former delegate that I worked for his campaign from 1991 to 1995. But I know Bob Marshall as a man of principle. He introduced a child-support […]
