What I did today part 2: Lynda Robb for Webb

Last Saturday morning, I got a phone call about doing a women's luncheon in Norfolk with former first lady Lynda Robb for Jim Webb.

MSM is liberal? Hardly

Somehow, the AP found time to cover a press conference in which 20 black pastors endorsed George Allen for his support of the so-called Marriage Amendment but failed to cover the 280+ faith leaders who oppose the amendment. Mind you, among the 20 pastors were the ones he trotted out at his rally with John … Continue reading MSM is liberal? Hardly →

What I did today part 1: Drake/Kellam debate

Well, not quite. I started my day listening to State Senator Yvonne Miller's radio show, which airs 6:00 - 7:00 AM on AM1400, WPCE. Anybody that knows me knows I am not a morning person.

A challenger in the 87th

I've now confirmed with several sources that there will be a Republican challenger for Paula Miller's 87th House District seat. The man is being championed by Ward 5 councilman Randy Wright.
