I can tell you from my own experience. I am a Virginia republican resident and numerous times have called Kaine (D) and Warner (D) office to express my opinion on issues that were coming up for a vote. Warner’s office was always respect to me but Kaine’s, nope... they were rude, arrogant and dismissive (Me being a conservative and daring to call a liberal Senators office). This did not happen just once, but EVERY time I called. One time the girl was so obnoxious to me, she was even laughing at me as she hung up......and yes I did call right back and b*tch about that as well........So what I am saying is you are as good as the people you surround yourself with. Kaine is not the goodie two shoe the Hilldabeast is claiming he is. They are 2 arrogant peas in a pod and it is a perfect match. Do not by the media selling him as a nice man, I have never talked directly to him but his staff shows me what he is like.
