House panel rejects Kaine nominee for cabinet post (VA)

Jerry listened to the wrong people and just fritted away a sure victory.

It looks as though the VA Senate is 23 (R) and 17 (D)

All but about 6-8 of those Republicans are major RINOs

I think he did. VA is strong GOP. After Kaine's term, it will be again for several terms.

Dim Paine is being reminded that Virginia is a red state.

Kaine strikes me as being a complete dope. Frankly, I can't believe he won even with Kilgore running a joke of a campaign.

Good news! Funny how when the RATS thwart the President, it is courageous statemship, but when Republicans thwart a RAT governor, it is mean-spirited and attack on the regular people.

No double standard here. Nope! None whatsoever!
