I have moved Virginia’s 5th District to a new blog server. I like the format better at blogspot.com so have deiced to continue this blog there. I have been away from here as most people know working on Laurence Verga’s campaign but now that the primary is over I will be blogging on a daily [...]
And now for a little entertainment.
Jim McKelvey talks a good talk but doesn’t seem to be able to walk the talk. It turns out that the $500,000 in self funding is coming from a line of credit that has been set up with his bank. The key word here is credit, aka loan, this from someone who finds fault with [...]
This came in from Hurt’s campaign today. How exactly would this work out in a debate? ‘He voted more times for HIGHER taxes than I!’ ‘I only raised taxes by $1 Billion, he raised it by $663 Billion!’ Perriello Votes for $664 Billion in Tax Increases and Counting… Congressman Perriello and Democrats in Washington have [...]
This unfortunate incident happened at Tom’s brothers house and is reported here – http://www.nbc29.com/global/story.asp?s=12196736 Like many of you, I don’t know who is responsible for this kind of atrocious behavior, most likely a complete wacko.

This morning, Micheal McPadden’s former campaign manager Joshua Solovskoy posted on his Facebook and blog pages an apology to 5th District voters for supporting and recommending McPadden. You can find it here – http://solovskoy.blogspot.com/2010/03/why-mike-mcpadden-is-dangerous-for-5th.html It is a long apology but one that we must read to be informed. What does this mean for McPadden? McPadden [...]
“I have not yet begun to fight.” That phrase was uttered by American naval hero John Paul Jones as his ship was engaged in a battle with an English warship. Jones eventually lost his ship, but captures that warship that had asked if he was ready to strike his colors, ie, to lower his ensign [...]
H RE 1190, the now infamous ‘Slaughter Option’ has just been passed in the House of Representatives. Tom has voted no on it, which I deem nothing more than a smoke screen so that he can claim that he wasn’t for that option when he is hounded by his constituents when he arrives back in [...]
If you are unable to make it on the Washington DC March 16th trip to face your Congressman face to face, you can still be involved. On March 16th from 12:00pm to 12:15pm, drive around your nearest Congressional office and occasionally honk you horn for at least 15 minutes. The goal is to have Americans [...]
