Yep.

Fortunately, part of the political fallout from weasel Warner's tax hike was that he kept his head down on this issue (he was in favor of sticking the taxpayers so that Virginia could be "Major League", or some such nonsense). I hear that on the monthly "Ask The Governor" program on local radio yesterday, the chief flack for the Virginia stadium bid accused Warner of "stabbing us in the back" (gee, join the club).
