Below are my impressions of a few of the people we may be discussing:
  1. Senator Mark Warner- What a disappointment!  He ran as a conservative democrat, probably won the state for O'Bama and tows the liberal democrat line.
  2. Senator Jim Webb- Scary Dude!  Although he has proved to be more of a maverick than Warner.  If they were the last two people to vote for I'd have to pick Webb.
  3. Rep. Robert Wittman - 1st District -  1st elected 12/07 in special election.  Moderate just to the right of Frank Wolf.  Strongest on social issues.
  4. Rep. Glenn Nye, III - 2nd District- 1st elected 11/08 - voted against HR2454 -Clean Energy Act.  The only Va democrat to do that.  Give him credit.
  5. Rep. Bobby Scott - 3rd District- 1st elected 11/92 - the most liberal representative.  Va would be better off without him.
  6. Rep. Randy Forbes - 4th District-1st elected 06/01 in special election.  Strong on social and defense issues.  Good on  the economy.
  7. Rep. Tom Perriello- 5th District-1st elected 11/08.  So far he's being a good little minion for Princess Pelosi.  Still can't believe he unseated Goode.  He's also missed 10% of his votes since taking office.  He will be a "one-termer" if the republicans run effectively against his record.
  8. Rep. Robert Goodlatte- 6th District-1st elected 11/92.  Very strong conservative on social and defense.  Good on the economy.  Has only missed 69 of 10647 votes since January 1993.  That's only 12 more than Perriello has missed in 6 months!! 
  9. Rep. Eric Cantor - 7th District- My representative.  Great Conservative...But, he's the whip and he did not 'get it done' on energy.  No republican should have voted for that bill!
  10. Rep. Jim Moran - 8th District-1st elected 11/90.  Very liberal, especially on the economy and defense.
  11. Rep. Rick Boucher- 9th District- 1st elected 11/82.  I don't agree with his politics, BUT he is about the only one who takes emails from everyone.  Kudos to Rep Boucher!  Boucher has traditionally been the most moderate of the Va Democrats, but after seeing the votes on HR2454, Rep Nye may have taken over that spot.
  12. Rep. Frank Wolf - 10th District- 1st elected 11/82.  Moderate republican who is strongest on social issues.
  13. Rep. Gerry Connolly- 11th District-1st elected 11/08.  I don't yet know much about Connolly, just that he spent a lot of money to win his seat.  Looks like a typical rank and file democrat.
  14. Governor Tim Kaine - Is he still our Governor???  Really???

  1. Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi- Tweedle Dumb and Tweedle Dumber.  Although I must admit Pelosi has mastered the art of coercion.  How she gets so many to follow her down the road of destruction..I don't know.
  2. Barack O'Bama - A naive, arrogant ideologue.  That's a very dangerous combination.  I fear for my childrens' safety, as well as their future because of what he is trying to do.   Great orator of prepared material.  Terrible when forced "off message".
  3. Barney Frank - Look him up in Webster's dictionary between the words "stupendous" and "stupor".  What are the people of the Mass. 4th district thinking every two years??
  4. Sarah Palin- Like it or not, she's the superstar of the republican party.  The trouble is, many in the party are doing their best to drive her out.  More on Palin on my "About Me" page.
