I started this blog to talk about local politics, specifically Norfolk politics. It is impossible
to talk about Norfolk in a vacuum, so you'll also find some regional, state, and national politics. And sometimes, no politics at all.
The inspiration for this blog comes from one of Virginia's most respected forefathers:
"I know no safe depositary of the ultimate powers of the society but the people themselves; and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise their control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them, but to inform their discretion by education. This is the true corrective of abuses of constitutional power."
Thomas Jefferson, 1820

I think they should both be in the whitehouse. Stop the debate and agree to both team up and go after the republicans. Flip a coin for Pres. or one gets it first 4 years and other gets it the 2nd.
A very good, substantive debate. The best so far.
wait and see if it is 1988 all over again and the dems pull another jesse jackson, in 1988 jackson should have been VP but they went with a safe bet on benson, question will the clintons do the same?
My bet is that Hillary would choose Evan Bayh as her VP. But I don´t believe she´ll win.
Ah, Evan Bayh – the man who thinks that telecom immunity is more important than your constitutional rights. A brilliant choice, really.
I’d say Wesley Clark for VP.
I do like him, and he’s certainly been working his ass off for Dems the past few years. Also, I think he’d make a perfectly fine President, which is the path we put any VP nominee on (which is why hearing names like Bayh and Webb being tossed around boggles me).
