Yes he was Gov. Of Va.
Sorry folks - didn't know he was a governor at one time. Even though that's true, he'll have a Senate record to run against (even though it's stellar). I'm sure that there are votes that he had to compromise on that the liberals will be able to exploit.
ALSO - Ken Blackwell for Governor of Ohio. The Country Republicans in Ohio (including Governor Taft) hate him because he's a true conservative and ripped them all a new a-hole about the state tax increases. He was (or is) President of the National Taxpayers Union. Solid guy.
