Well, I’ll put it out there because it is a question that needs to be answered. But Siobhan Stolle Dunnavant has the political dynasty of her brothers to run interference, so I doubt this will even be considered. The RPV rules state in Section 1, Qualifications: 4.In addition to the foregoing, to be in accord […]

The adverse publicity couldn’t come at a worse time for Republican Lt. Governor Candidate Corey Stewart. With the Republican Convention taking place this weekend and Stewart, one of 7 candidates for Lt. Governor jockeying for position, Breitbart’s news organization has done an investigative report on the negative mailers being sent to most, if not all, […]

I just got off the phone with a person calling from 804-446-4934 claiming to be conducting a survey about the Virginia Republican Convention. I agreed to answer the three questions on the survey. I am signed up to be a Delegate and assumed this was related to that fact. The first question was “Who do […]

Say it ain’t so! Speculation abounds and tongues are wagging that Bill Bolling, the current Republican Lt. Governor of Virginia, bitter about Attorney General Cuccinelli’s decision to run for Governor may run as an Independent. After assuming that the Republican Nomination was all locked up after his magnanimous gesture to seek a second term as Lt. […]

Once again, Bishop E.W. Jackson came away from a Virginia Republican US Senate debate as the winner. His overall performance was perhaps a bit less stellar than the Roanoke Debate, but that was most likely a function of the questions asked, which were so similar that it was not easy to answer without repeating yourself.

A new Public Policy Polling (PPP) survey reveals Virginia US Senate Candidate George Allen is walking away with the Republican nomination. Allen received 66% of the tally while the final entrant into the race Delegate Bob Marshall polled at just 8%. Jamie Radtke, the former head of the Richmond TEA Party has fallen to 3% […]

One of the most unsettling bits of news out of Washington DC lately concerns House Majority Leader Eric Cantor and his support for Indiana Senator Dick Lugar. Normally, we wouldn’t get too concerned over Cantor or any Republican supporting a fellow Republican incumbent. It is understandable that the decision to support Lugar is not popular […]

ROANOKE, VA – Republican Candidate for US Senate Bishop E.W.

Jackson’s enthusiasm and charisma was in full display as this man of humble beginnings has gone from a foster child […]

We hope not, but given the fact that Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell is often named on everyone’s short list for Vice President, and his strong support for Virginia’s anointed Republican candidate Mitt Romney, it is a question that is being raised often in Pro-life circles. And we all know about the abortion flip-flops that Mitt […]

Former Speaker Newt Gingrich has demonstrated why Mitt Romney cannot beat Barack Obama. The victory in South Carolina last night, a thorough trouncing by Newt over Romney and the rest of the field, gave us a glimpse of what is to come should Romney win the Republican nomination. While the Republican elite will now do […]

I have made no bones about the fact that I do not believe Mitt Romney is the best man the Republicans could put forth to replace Barack Obama. Romney is a New England Republican, which in my book makes him a Liberal. A RINO if you prefer. But a Big Government proponent with a strong […]

It appears we may have already seen the first salvo fired in the 2013 race for the Virginia Republican nomination for Governor in 2013. Or is it the second? Lt.

Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli raised some eyebrows with the announcement that he would run for Governor in 2013. Most in Virginia Republican circles were familiar with the “deal” made between then Attorney General Bob McDonnell and then (and still) Lt. Governor Bill Bolling. Or most had at least heard the rumor. In order to […]
