He asked for questions from the audience. I still remember mine (which is applicable to nearly every major demo running for office today):
“Mr. Governor, why every time your name in in the press is some scandal attached to it?”
He quickly moved on to a more friendly student for a softball question and did not answer me.
dumber than an old tsubo.
Virginians out there. How does this race look? Its an important one.
