9 September 2011 | Loudoun County, Virginia Politics | 59 Comments
For some reason that I can’t quite fathom, elections for Sheriff tend to be some of the strangest in the Commonwealth, and that’s not limited at all to Prince William County. These vicious political brawls involve some of the most colorful characters ever to run for election and the information that comes out during these […]

I Am Disgusted By George Allen Today
26 August 2011 | Virginia Politics, US Senate | 19 Comments
Normally a US Senate race happening more than a year from now wouldn’t get a whole lot of attention from me. We have more immediate concerns in Virginia, and it doesn’t please me a whole lot that with a battle that would decide the balance of power in the Senate of Virginia we’ve got Senate […]

When Campaigns Go Bad
24 August 2011 | Virginia Politics | 15 Comments
Conventional wisdom would say that going negative in a campaign is a good strategy, but the caveat that what you go negative with better really be worth it seems far less remembered. Several campaigns dabbled in the negative this primary cycle and saw once again how this maxim plays out in Virginia to their detriment.
Here We Go Again!

Insanity: a person runs for office without bothering to figure out how much of their personal history can be quite easily uncovered.
Sheer insanity: that history includes statements the person entered into the court record about being hospitalized for a psychiatric disorder which they used as an excuse for defaulting on child support obligations.
Mind-blowing insanity: that […]

Babur Lateef Under Criminal Investigation
19 July 2011 | DPVA, Prince William County | 13 Comments
According to Riley over at Virtucon, sources are saying a special prosecutor has been appointed to investigate charges of wire fraud and bank fraud. Just imagine, the darling of PWC dems whose candidacy was so celebrated by the Moonhowlings/moonbat crowd may soon be under indictment for his mortgage default scheme. This might be the first time […]

Lies, Damned Lies, and “Messaging”
16 July 2011 | DPVA | 1 Comment
I am really enjoying the reports from “DemRulz” coming out of the DPVA summit held this weekend. If these are the little notes being made public about the presentations by leaders within the Democratic Party of Virginia, I can only imagine what the stuff is they’re choosing not to make public.

14 July 2011 | DPVA, Fairfax County, Virginia House | 5 Comments
More details are emerging about the political pedigree of Democrat Eric Clingan, who is running against Jim LeMunyon in the 67th House District, and Democrats are utterly aghast.

Get Involved!
29 June 2011 | RPV | 12 Comments
Tenth District Chairman Howie Lind recorded a series of short videos that urge grass-roots Republicans to get involved in this year’s elections and this is the first installment. This message is absolutely on the mark — this is an important election and we all need to be activists this year.
McDonnell Pushes Janet Incompetano
10 June 2011 | National Politics, Illegal Aliens, Virginia Politics | 10 Comments
Nine months ago Governor McDonnell requested that the Department of Homeland Security approve Virginia’s request to participate in the Section 287(g) Program and to date he’s heard nothing from the federal government. Virginia is offering to spend state taxpayer dollars to help the federal government do their job and what happens with that offer? It […]

So what has Krystal Ball been up to after her 30 point drubbing by Rob Wittman? Moore Common Sense has the answer:
Now here we have someone in Krystal Ball who embraces scandal because she craves publicity. To the liberal movement, wake up and shed your hypocrisy. To Krystal Ball, have some respect for yourself and […]

Masked Gunman Robs Woodbridge Church
6 June 2011 | Virginia Politics, Crime, Prince William County | 6 Comments
Liberals were aghast earlier this year after Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli produced a legal opinion saying that concealed carry in a church was legal under Virginia law. “Why would anyone need a gun in a church?” they cried.
Well, today we have a demonstration of the answer to that question.
I can’t wait to see how liberals […]

Just Call Me Macacca, Already
3 June 2011 | Virginia Politics, US Senate | 9 Comments
The race for U. S. Senate in Virginia has hardly begun, and for the second time I’m getting called names by George Allen supporters.

3 June 2011 | Virginia Politics, Humor & Satire | 3 Comments
Those boys down in Bristol, VA sure are a humble lot. Mentioned simply as an aside in an article about Senator William Wampler’s retirement announcement is the stunning revelation that he set a new world record for land speed the day before telling Virginia that he would not seek re-election in the Senate of Virginia.

George Allen’s Support of Islam
1 June 2011 | Virginia Politics | 16 Comments
When a supposedly Christian church decides it’s going to further the cause of Islam, it’s a pretty infuriating thing for many Christians to hear. The news that an Episcopal Church refused to sell a parish to a congregation that decided to break away from the Episcopal Diocese and instead sold it to a mosque for […]

Charitable Contributions By Localities: Is It Lawful?
19 May 2011 | Virginia Politics | 27 Comments
Is it legally permissible for a locality in Virginia to donate taxpayer dollars to a little league? Is it OK for a locality to provide taxpayer funds to a charity as a gift?
