So much for the Richmond Times Dispatch nonsense about the 55th District being embarrassed by Delegate Buddy Fowler’s record. Did those crooked-glasses “Einstein’s” at the Times miss the mark or what? At the end of the day, the race for Delegate came down to the issue of Medicaid Expansion. Virginians simply do not want to […]

This 12th Senate race is becoming nasty but intriguing. One of the stories I find perplexing is the McEachin one. It started with this comment in response to my first protest of the anti-lawyer ad campaign of Dr. Dunnavant from Skipper Stanley: State Senator Don McEachin supposedly fell off his chair eating breakfast when he […]

McAuliffe vs. McAuliffe Candidate Terry McAuliffe would never do what Governor McAuliffe is preparing to do, which is shut down state and local government. He can explain his position better than I, so give a listen. 2 Minute Clip: About Tom WhiteTom is a US Navy Veteran, owns an Insurance Agency and is currently an […]

It’s not too often when RedState gives a Libertarian good news but they did. Here is the story from the email box of the man himself, Erick Erickson (actually written by Neil Stevens)! Stevens’s concern is that Democrats are overpolled compared to the population. He’s probably right. I have tremendous respect for what RedState does. […]

There is an email from Susan Stimpson the former Republican Candidate for Lt. Governor in Virginia circulating concerning the Republican’s plan to expand the ObamaCare Medicaid program in the Commonwealth. My fellow blogger Sandy Sanders covered this story today here. We all remember the deal the Republicans made in the last session to get Democrats […]

Even the Wall Street Journal said that the name of McDonnell comes up from time to time as a Presidential Candidate in 2016 – “well, that (tax increase) erases that”. Well said, Mark!

While the Supreme Court upheld the ObamaTax mandate which will increase taxes mostly on those making less than $100,000, one other portion of the ruling disallows the Federal Government from defunding states that refuse to expand Medicaid. The way the ObamaTax law was written, if a state refuses to expand Medicaid to take in far […]
