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

What a strech by the Dems! You guys are grasping at straws, if his thesis is your only attempt at an argument, this is a slam dunk for Mcdonnell. I can’t wait to vote!
What would you like us to pick a part? I think plenty of folks have beaten his transportation plan to a pulp. I went over his Energy Plan. I’m pretty sure I have seen a critique of his economic plan. So, what more would you like?
Instead of spending all that effort to put together those essays, he could have saved himself the time by just saying: “Status quo, that’s it. You like the way things are going in VA? I’m not going to really try and change them.” But then again, I guess he had to check that box.
Read the thesis. There’s a lot there.
