Where the Hell has Gov Tim Kaine been these days?
You know the chairman of the party?

I still see Dr. Dean doing all the legwork on news shows, speeches, Townhalls etc. but without the title.

Never cared for Kaine's politics.

1. Kaine is there to do 'nothing'. Put in while Dean was out of town. Didn't help Franken. nt

2. Being one of the many anchors that dragged Deeds' campaign down here in VA.
(And yes, I know Deeds has much to answer for too.)

I am sitting here SICK at the thought that, one year after going blue for the first time in my life, we are about to get saddled with a wingnut American Taliban jack@ss in the Governor's Mansion. :mad:

4. I don't watch much US TV news but do follow whose on doing interviews


I never hear his name mentioned, on morning joke nor Sunday news talk shows he must be Michael Steele's valet.

13. There is a VA Supreme Court opening, so Bob McTaliban will get a Repuke in that slot.
I take a TINY bit of comfort in knowing that Virginia's economy is a giant cluster***k and McDon'traiseanyonestaxes won't be able to improve the road system or anything else w/out new funds, he & the GOP will be getting the same huge heaps of blame that Obama is getting now for the sh*t sandwich that GWB left behind.

3. Tim's busy opposing civil rights for his fellow Democrats
and boring any audience punished with his presence to tears.

6. Dean had to rebuild infrastructure state by state after 10years of neglect and collapse
and with party strength at its all time highest, the establishment Dems are back to fucking it all up....again.

Boy, did Obama screw up thinking he could trust THAT wing of the party.

Obama needs to sit down and have a chat with Gore, Kerry and Dean about what they observed firsthand in the states from 2000-2006. Dean rebuilt party infrastructure state by state and after Bush ANY Dem was winning in 2008. Obama didn't have to face the tough realities about party infrastructure collapsed in crucial states that dictated the results of 2000, 2002 and 2004.

8. Bueller?... Bueller?... Bueller? Bueller anyone?
Simone:

Um, he's sick. My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with the girl who saw Ferris pass out at 31 Flavors last night. I guess it's pretty serious.


Economics Teacher: Thank you, Simone

Simone: No problem whatsoever
