Republicans rallying this morning in Springfield had a new prop: A broom that read "McBolliNelli" on the handle.

The Republican ticket is stumping throughout the state Saturday but began with a traditional GOP pep rally at Interstate Van Lines in Springfield. Gubernatorial candidate Bob McDonnell was joined by ticket mates Lt. Gov. Bill Bolling, attorney general candidate Sen. Ken Cuccinelli and a variety for Republican luminaries, including Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour, chairman of the Republican Governors Association.

It looks like the photos at his site are posted by grassroots people. I had linked there via his facebook page. Maybe you could post yours there once they’re ready. We had a sprinkling of rain early on then it quit. It’s supposed to be sunny on Tuesday!

I thought the GOP still held the House of Delegates?!

They don’t?

How many seats do they need to regain control?

Next year is the U.S. House. Sorry for leaving out the U.S. part and adding to the confusion. We have some chances for GOP pick-ups there, too. Yes, you're right; the Virginia House still has a Republican majority which we're hoping to add to on Tuesday!
