I have been around all over both geographically and politically – I was just at an event in the last several days featuring Terry McAuliffe and he wants to both accept the Medicaid expansion and spend the money from the Feds for education! (That is in contrast to what Michigan Governor Rick Snyder wants to […]

The Cuccinelli campaign has been after Terry McAuliffe for weeks on alleged ethical questions regarding the use of the EB-5 visa to encourage foreign investment in new or troubled businesses. I am not terribly interested in the ethical issues, when the Times-Dispatch calls the Democrat “Tricky Terry” on its editorial page no more need be […]

Libertarian Robert Sarvis was the guest at the Mechanicsville TP Thursday night and from what I heard from one of my sources (I was not there) it was well-received. Sarvis was detailed and refused to trim hi message to try to win votes. He might have even won a vote or two from what I […]

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. He had a regular column in the Times-Dispatch. He is a movement conservative and generally votes right. He […]

This is pretty big. Former Virginia Governor Doug Wilder, the nation’s first elected black governor decided not to extend his endorsement of Barack Obama for his reelection. According to the Times Dispatch: Former Gov. L. Douglas Wilder, who backed Democrat Barack Obama for president in 2008, did not endorse Obama or Republican Mitt Romney in […]

After inheriting a surplus of $1.5 Billion when he became Governor of Virginia and squandering that nest egg into a $4.5 Billion Dollar Shortfall, Tim Kaine has proved that Tim Kaine-sian economics simply do not work. Note to the Kaine Supporters: Tossing out a drive-by budget that massively raised taxes on Virginians to fix his budget […]

No, Butler University is not moving to the River City. But this report in the Indianapolis Star (and this one in our own Times-Dispatch) indicates that there is serious talks for Butler Bulldogs to replace Temple in the Atlantic 10: ESPN.com, without identifying sources, reported Monday that Butler has expressed interest in replacing Temple in […]

Richmond Mayor Dwight C. Jones sympathizes with the Occupy Richmond zombies who have set up a tent city in Richmond’s Kanawha Plaza in Downtown Richmond. Jones was quoted in a Times Dispatch article as saying: “I understand protests and occupations and I have been involved in similar types of activities during my lifetime,” Jones said, […]

I was afraid this might happen even though I wanted VCU to win in the worst way. When the Kansas team dissed the UR team and I did not see an apology for it by the coach, I wanted to see a big win by VCU. A don’t mess with Richmond statement! According to the […]

I was not going to blog on this issue but the combination of Senator Warner’s concern about the debt and Senator Sanders (no relation to this blogger!) ridiculous speech on the rich forced my hand. Let’s start with Senator Warner warning Virginians about hard times ahead. The Times-Dispatch reports that Warner was accurate that the […]

Barack Obama said “We won!”. And while Virginia Republicans would not be as crass as President Obama, res ipsa loquitur. And the Republican victory in Virginia last November was both a landslide and a mandate. The people have spoken. Democrats are out of touch and the conservative message was well received and reflected by the […]

The Times Dispatch Corrects Democrat Tom Shield’s FALSE charges against Delegate O’Bannon: The Republican incumbent in a hotly contested House of Delegates race in Henrico County is rejecting charges by his challenger that he opposes emergency contraceptives for rape victims. “That my opponent continues to make false claims about my record is disappointing,” said Del.

I wrote in a previous blog entry here at Virginia Right that McDonnell and Cuccinelli need to call for a special session of the Virginia General Assembly to amend the law on lab reports to comply with the Supreme Court’s decision in Melendez-Diaz. I am pleased that Sen. Cuccinelli has in deed called for the […]
