A Great Finish For Dianne Blais
12 January 2012 | Fairfax County, Virginia House | 1 Comment
Dianne Blais might not have achieved much success in her run for Delegate in the 40th District, but she did manage to finish within the top three in a nationwide contest for the worst videos of 2011. Her third-place finish in the Sucky Awards is truly a notable accomplishment and for that she well deserves our heartfelt […]

The Virginia Blastoff Bailout
8 December 2011 | Virginia House | 15 Comments
If there were a contest each General Assembly session for the dumbest bill of the year, HB 19 would be a very strong contender this time around. Seriously, are we really going to be giving people $8,000 tax breaks to help blast minuscule portions of people’s earthly remains into space?

I Could Use Some Teeth Here
21 November 2011 | 13th HOD District, Virginia Politics, Prince William County | 21 Comments
Delegate Bob Marshall has filed an interesting bill to ensure that unborn children are recognized as legal persons, setting off a firestorm among the left. While the intent behind this is laudable, and it’s that very idea that drives those who want to protect the interests of abortionists crazy, I don’t think anyone on the left has […]

Fighting The Right Battles, Right
20 November 2011 | 87th HOD District, Loudoun County, Prince William County | 12 Comments
This was a race that shouldn’t have been anywhere near close. A strong conservative, running in a highly conservative district encompassing a swath of mostly Loudoun County and some of Prince William County, narrowly ekes out a 51 vote victory margin against a no-name liberal who runs a weak campaign amidst the biggest Republican wave […]

BVBL 72 Hour Report
5 November 2011 | Loudoun County, Fairfax County, Virginia House, Virginia Senate, Prince William County | 8 Comments
Lots of campaign activity across Northern Virginia, especially with Governor McDonnell, Lieutenant Governor Bolling, Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli, RPV Chairman Pat Mullins and Senate Minority Leader Tommy Norment swinging by campaign rallies across the area this weekend. As these races enter their final days, some races are tightening and you have an opportunity to make […]
Election Guide - House of Delegates in PWC
4 November 2011 | Virginia House, Prince William County | 2 Comments
Given that the House of Delegates has a substantial majority that is likely to grow to between sixty-four and sixty-six seats after this election, voters have to understand the difference between electing someone who will be relegated to a powerless minority and electing someone who will be in a position to make things happen for […]

The Clown Of The 31st District
2 November 2011 | 31st HOD District, Prince William County | 2 Comments
Ever since “used condom girl” showed up to take the reigns of the Roy Coffey campaign, I knew Scott Lingamfelter would be in good shape. After precisely guiding the Jeanette Rishell campaign into a political smoking crater that effectively ended Rishell’s hopes of ever being an elected official, the Coffey campaign seems to be a reprise […]

Notes From One Week Out
1 November 2011 | Virginia House, Virginia Senate, Prince William County | 9 Comments
As campaigns enter their final week it seems that Democrats are starting to grasp just what a debacle they’re potentially facing on November 8th, and it’s monumental. With no time left to adjust, finding themselves way behind in their campaign finances, and saddled with “leadership” of the likes of Brian Moran who is doing just […]

Constituents Say Tim Hugo is GREAT
30 September 2011 | Fairfax County, Virginia House, Prince William County | 4 Comments
I had the pleasure of getting someone in Centreville who was having a problem with VDOT and Fairfax County in touch with Delegate Tim Hugo recently, because I knew this would be the most effective way of getting it addressed. Tonight I got a nice email back from him, and as I knew would happen, […]

PWC 100 Debates
29 September 2011 | 13th VA Senate, Loudoun County, 13th HOD District, Prince William County | 6 Comments
Tonight’s debates between Bob Marshall and Carl Genthner, and between Dick Black and Shawn Miller were rather amusing. Both of these races are between strong, experienced conservatives and starry-eyed Obama supporters bearing no meaningful resume. Many thanks to the Prince William Committee of 100 for sponsoring tonight’s event, as otherwise there would be no opportunity […]

Some of you up in Gainesville that used to be in Delegate Bob Marshall’s district are now in the 40th House District which is ably represented by Tim Hugo. You’ll find that Tim is one of the easiest legislators to get in touch with and is a public servant who is highly dedicated to constituent […]

Jo-Ann Chase Lawsuit Dismissed
16 September 2011 | 87th HOD District, Jo-Ann Chase | 9 Comments
A lawsuit by Jo-Ann Chase’s campaign alleging that David Ramadan does not live in the 87th District was, as predicted, shot down in court yesterday. Ramadan sought an expedited hearing schedule so this annoyance could be dispensed with before the November elections, confident that this instance of harassment-by-attorney would be easily brushed aside.
This has left Jo-Ann […]

The Jo-Ann Chase Insanity Circus
19 August 2011 | 87th HOD District, Jo-Ann Chase | 34 Comments
On Wednesday we will be done with having a nutcase like Jo-Ann Chase running for office, and for me that moment cannot come soon enough. Having crazy people in politics just makes life difficult for too many good people, and the last few days have been crazy — as in off-your-meds, break out the straightjackets crazy.

Stevens Miller Endorses Jo-Ann Chase
18 August 2011 | 87th HOD District, Jo-Ann Chase | 4 Comments
I can’t imagine Jo-Ann Chase really wanted this endorsement, but Democrat Stevens Miller apparently would rather see her as the nominee in the 87th District. I guess running against a nut is a bit easier for Dems, after all.
While I have to say that, naturally, I hope neither of them wins the election in […]

10th District Facts Vs. Reality
17 August 2011 | Loudoun County, Virginia House | 1 Comment
As the primary approaches in the 10th District, facts are getting sacrificed on the altar of political expediency, as often happens. Here’s a little cheat sheet to keep things straight.

Now That Name Sounds Familiar…
15 August 2011 | 31st HOD District | 6 Comments
Delegate Scott Lingamfelter has a Democrat challenger this cycle, and it was worth looking at Roy Coffey’s finance disclosure this reporting period to try to figure out how he spent more money than he took in to leave him with only a paltry $5k or so to challenge Lingamfelter. Part of the reason for the […]

Jo-Ann Chase: Your “Abortion Rights” Candidate?
14 August 2011 | 87th HOD District, Jo-Ann Chase | 8 Comments
So when given an opportunity to describe her position on abortion during an appearance on the Kojo Nmamdi Show on August 5th, Jo-Ann Chase strangely starts talking in circles, speaking about how she would “uphold the rule of law.” Well, the law currently states that people can murder unborn children in the first trimester. So […]

This Is What Happens When You Threaten BVBL
10 August 2011 | Jo-Ann Chase, Loudoun County, Virginia House, Prince William County | 53 Comments
Yesterday a South Carolina law firm representing 87th House District candidate Jo-Ann Chase demanded that I “cease and desist any and all publication regarding [their] client” or they would “immediately commence legal action” against me. Well, here at BVBL we don’t take kindly to ridiculous legal threats and have a standard response to dealing with […]

Russ Potts: Randy Minchew Is Who We Need
10 August 2011 | Loudoun County, Virginia House | 2 Comments
In 2005 Russ Potts ran for governor as an independent, giving us four years of Tim Kaine. In 2007 Russ Potts criticized Jill Vogel, and in 2009 Potts campaigned for Creigh Deeds. In 2011 Russ Potts hosted a campaign event for Randy Minchew, saying Minchew “is the kind of person we need to […]
