Davis was unquestionably the best congressman to come from his congressional district here in Alabama (a gerrymandered majority black district). Though he was a Democrat, I liked him and thought he was a refreshing change from the nutjobs like Earl Hilliard who had held the job in the past. Then he really impressed me by running for governor and breaking from the corrupt black political machine here. I am only sorry that he moved to Virginia though I totally understand it. I hope he wins his race up there.
Davis isn’t running for an office in VA, yet. He might run for the state legislature in 2013 and perhaps for VA-11 (whose last GOP member was also named Davis) in 2014, presuming we don’t retake it this year.
