ODU
The sticky situation with Old Dominion University was a constant thorn in the side of the campaign. If you will recall from my post on Oct 20, I didn’t want to create a “macaca moment” for the campaign as a result of this blog. Unfortunately ODU became that very “macaca moment”. If you are unfamiliar [...]

An Introduction
2009 was a busy election year in the state of Virginia. Not only did we elect a Governor, Lieutenant Governor, and Attorney General, but we also elected one hundred members to the House of Delegates and numerous other city and county officials. In this season, I worked in the 93rd House district, an [...]
The Campaigner’s Lament
Posted in Political Musings on November 11, 2009 | 1 Comment »
I sit in my room alone shoveling lukewarm Spagettios into my mouth as greedily as a malnourished child. The meal is bland, but allows me precious time to reflect on the day…a time to be myself.

Now that the dust has pretty well settled (and I’ve gotten a bit of sleep), here are my thoughts concerning Election Day.

The big day is today. Election Day has come at last. Assuming my automatic timing is correct, polls are just now opening across the commonwealth. So get out there and vote. If you don’t, and your side doesn’t win, you have no room to complain. I’ll accept no excuses. Although I’m many miles away from [...]
Scozzafava’s True Colors

Scozzafava’s departure from the NY-23 congressional race should come as welcome news to Republicans and conservatives alike. The great concern was that a Republican and a Conservative candidate would split the Republican vote and allow for a Democratic victory. Although Hoffman’s views were arguably more Republican than Scozzafava, the Republican nominee, the Republican R label [...]
