I moved here in 2000 and was glad to get out of Democrat laden Pennsylvania. Then VA got a Democrat gov. Then VA voters elected Obama. Finally, Virginians came to their senses again and elected Republicans to head up our state once more.
So, to paraphrase a comment of, ahem, Michelle Ma Belle, that we so often repeated...."After 10 years, I am finally proud of Virginia!" Thank goodness we have an AG and a Gov. with some guts and common sense. I hope this has legs and stands...and that other states follow our lead.
No matter where I live, my heart and soul will always be in Virginia.
You are the type of transplanted Yankees we like. My step-father was a transplanted Yankee when he came from New Jersey to attend University of Richmond in the 50’s. When he died, he was a native Virginian. :-)
My sentiments exactly. Supposedly from one of the “first families of Va.”, I was living out of state for years and couldn’t believe Va. went down the RAT hole. Now that Virginia seems to be coming to their senses, it’s good to be back here in Richmond. Sic Semper Tyrannis!!
