After all the work you put in...step away from FR...book ticket to Tahiti...buy the new Steven King book...stay away from newspapers and cable news.
You buyin?
No, there is nothing first class about Jim Webb.
We made it through two years of the Dems controlling congress and the presidency, two years of them controllingthe congress won't do as much damge as that did.
But for Virginia it's a sad day. The only thing to look forward to is Kaine appointing Warner to Webb's seat after Webb is committed to a nuthouse.
Look on the bright side just throw it on your credit card ...with the dims in charge the end is nigh anyway.
Most successful Pres runs are from Governorships, NOT the Senate. A second term as Gov puts him in great position in 2012, IMHO.
Assuming John Warner retires, we could have a Mark Warner-George Allen race for the US Senate seat. That would be something.
Good point
Virginia desperately needs a charismatic Republican candidate for governor next time. The guys the party has put up there have just been duds. I don't think Allen is the guy, though. That 'macaca' thing has finished him here. We need a guy who had some cajones like Gilmore. There was a guy who was conservative and maintained his principles even when the RINOs here were taking shots at him.
True! That would be something!
>I'm still puzzled over Mark Warner's drop out. <
My guess is he's watching the buzzards circle John Warner, and waiting to use the Warner name recognition (even better now that he's got his own reputation) to step into that Senate seat.
And, I think he may have been offered some sort of plum by Hillary's people.
Never happen.
....but he's a first class clymer.
He's a clymer, alright, but there is nothing first class about him.
I have GOT to take a vacation!!!!!!
There are lots of folks who do, but you definitely DESERVE one.
Be very careful with that comment, m'dear...........there are lots of folks around willing to beat anyone to a pulp for just thinking that, let alone putting it in writing.
Like a long and happy life???
;-)
Gee, thanks.
We just got steamrolled, here in Virginia, by a Soros-funded, Kos-kid riddled, MSM full frontal attack on a decent man, a man who has represented our commonwealth very well as Governor, and as our Senator. We now get to endure at least one term with Mr. Bananas Are Not Just A Food, representing us in the Senate. How humiliating.
Allen may be like Gore in that both were Senators. The similarities end there.
Oh, and by the way, thanks a BUNCH Californian, for Nancy Pelosi.
Unfortunately I have neither the time nor money for a vacation right now. But I could use some distraction.
We need a good hurricane...
>We need a good hurricane...<
I think we've got more chance of a 2 foot snowstorm (bite my tongue!) before we see a hurricane.
Hard to believe he lost. That's all I will say.
Living on the coast, as I do, I'm not very enamored of your idea of a distraction...........
