Here’s the first in a series of one minute videos by Keith Fimian where he discusses his campaign and the important issues he intends to address as the next Congressman representing the 11th District. I’m really looking forward to seeing more of these.

Keith Fimian Kickoff Video
1 March 2010 | Fairfax County, US Congress, Prince William County | 1 Comment
I wish I could have been at this, but fortunately O. P. was there to capture some video of Keith Fimian’s official campaign kickoff for those of us who weren’t. I love how Keith continues to hone his message — it certainly gets the crowd all fired up!

Dems: Rush Is Gonna Eat Your Kids!
28 February 2010 | Fairfax County, Virginia House | 22 Comments
Can you believe this crap? Do Democrats really think that they’re going to win elections by saying that Rush Limbaugh is going to eat their children? I’d characterize this over-the-top hyperbole as utter desperation, if only I could make any sense out of it. Seeing that these rantings are typically reserved for the mentally disturbed, […]

Are You Kidding Me?
25 February 2010 | Fairfax County, US Congress, Prince William County | 32 Comments
Mason Conservative notes the differing choices Keith Fimian and Pat Herrity made in deciding a venue for their campaign kickoff events, and it kind of makes you wonder what’s up with the Herrity campaign. After Herrity withdrew from the Commonwealth Transportation Board after missing a huge chunk of their meetings, you have to wonder if […]
Bolognese Takes To The Air
25 February 2010 | Fairfax County, Virginia House | 5 Comments
Kerry Bolognese is going on air with this ad in the final week of his campaign in a special election in the 41st House District that will be held on Tuesday. I’d be interested to hear what readers thought of it.

An Unfortunately-Timed Object Lesson
10 February 2010 | Fairfax County, Virginia House | 6 Comments
Attention candidates for elected office: when you think that maybe it’s a good idea to use cheap, low-quality videos in your campaign at the same time you’re spending gobs of money on direct mail, remember this. Kerry joins a long list of good candidates who got punished for not thinking that it’s worth making sure […]

Marsden Upsets In 37th District
12 January 2010 | Fairfax County, Virginia Senate | 18 Comments
With 40 of 40 precincts reporting Marsden wins 51-49%…
After carpetbagging into the 37th District, Dave Marsden has managed to pull off a win against Republican Steve Hunt and flipped Ken Cuccinelli’s seat to the Democrats in the Senate of Virginia. This just about shuts off the chance to have Governor-Elect McDonnell to lure a Democrat […]

Virtucon: Prosecute Dave Marsden For Election Fraud
8 January 2010 | Fairfax County, Virginia Senate | 17 Comments
A number of Republican candidates have been prosecuted over the years for carpetbagging into a district and not actually establishing the residency required under the law in order to qualify as a candidate. Tonight Riley over at Virtucon demands the same standards now be applied to Democrats.
Dave Marsden is a liberal partisan Democrat who deserves […]

Marsden Pulls Out Of Debate
7 January 2010 | Fairfax County, Virginia Senate | 4 Comments
Remember that one debate that would happen this election cycle in the 37th Senate District? Dave Marsden canceled.
Probably a good idea for him considering his past performances.

37th District Debate Thursday
6 January 2010 | Fairfax County, Virginia Senate | 3 Comments
UPDATE: Marsden pulled out of the debate!
I just got this late notice of a debate between Steve Hunt and Dave Marsden and unfortunately won’t be able to attend the one smackdown between these two candidates that might make it a real interesting evening. If you can go, I highly recommend it…

The Post Still Can’t Engineer A Primary Battle
6 January 2010 | Gerry Connolly, Fairfax County, US Congress, Prince William County | 14 Comments
Since the Washington Post hasn’t managed to engineer a primary battle in the 11th District yet, it ran yet another story today which basically announces that Pat Herrity has not decided to contest Keith Fimian. This time unnamed “Republican officials” (as opposed to the WashPo’s editorial board) are credited with “pressuring Herrity to announce his […]

Steve Hunt Gets VCDL Nod
3 January 2010 | Fairfax County, Virginia Senate | 5 Comments
The Virginia Citizens Defense League PAC has issued a very strong endorsement for Steve Hunt over Dave Marsden this evening, alerting thousands of gun owners in the Commonwealth that Dave Marsden didn’t even bother to answer the VCDL issues survey. If you’re excited about the strong pro-Second Amendment bills already pre-filed for this session of […]

Dave Marsden: Running Out Of Fear
2 January 2010 | Fairfax County, Virginia Senate | 2 Comments
Bwana concisely boils down Delegate Dave Marsden’s record as a legislator and his campaign for the 37th Senate District in this excellent post:
No substantive stands in four years in elected office;
No willingness to have his party take a stand, instead hoping to get power on the cheap without actually standing for anything;
Never saw a tax […]

Keith Fimian Gets More Endorsements
15 December 2009 | Fairfax County, US Congress, Prince William County | 28 Comments
The bar for someone to challenge Keith Fimian for the nomination to take on Gerry Connolly got a little higher today as Delegates-Elect Rich Anderson and Jim LeMunyon add their endorsements to Keith’s list. These two freshman delegates join Congressman Eric Cantor, PWC Chairman Corey Stewart, Supervisor Mike May and Delegates Bob Marshall and Scott […]

Herrity In The 11th CD Race?
13 December 2009 | Fairfax County, US Congress, Prince William County | 3 Comments
UPDATE: NLS says Herrity is in. My sources say Ben is full of crap.
Chris over at Mason Conservative is saying he’s hearing the rumblings of a possible entry by Supervisor Pat Herrity in the 11th Congressional District race. We’ve seen these rumors floated before about this by the Washington Post, which I skeptically attributed to […]

Watching the 37th - UPDATED
1 December 2009 | Fairfax County, Virginia Senate | 7 Comments
UPDATE: Steve Hunt pulls out a big win with 51% of the vote!
A pretty respectable turnout tonight in the 37th District as between 1,700 and 1,900 voters showed up for the Republican primary. Surprisingly the race seems to between Will Nance, who mounted a pretty aggressive turnout effort, and Steve Hunt. Marianne Horinko looks to be trailing […]

37th Special Election On Tuesday
30 November 2009 | Fairfax County, Virginia Senate | 7 Comments
On Tuesday evening Republicans will select their nominee for the special election in the 37th District and all indications are that Steve Hunt is heavily favored to win. Hunt has an impressive list of local endorsements, has maintained an enormous lead in our online poll, and as the only candidate with a record as an elected official has garnered […]

Dave Marsden Lowers The Bar
23 November 2009 | Fairfax County, Virginia Senate | 16 Comments
As a preview of the campaign he intends to run, Dave Marsden has pulled what Riley is describing as “A Steve Chapman” by renting a room in the 37th Senate District so he could qualify as a candidate. Some Democrats are aghast, as Marsden manages to establish for himself even less of a plausible qualification […]

HAHAHAHA!!!
18 November 2009 | Fairfax County, Virginia Senate | 15 Comments
Can you believe this? Democrats even conducted a poll to try to figure out who to run in the 37th District, and all they could ultimately come up with was Dave Marsden!!! Apparently mounting a write-in campaign for a week-old dead carp was seen as too much of a challenge, so Marsden got the nod instead.
Boy, how […]
Who Is Marianne Horinko?
18 November 2009 | Fairfax County, Virginia Senate | 30 Comments
Voters in the 37th District are being bombarded with robocalls and mailers — as many as five a day this past Saturday – from the Marianne Horinko campaign as she tries to win the Republican nomination to run for Ken Cuccinelli’s Senate seat. Before her run for the Senate I’d never heard of Horinko as she’s never run […]
