1. You must be very proud!
My son has a wicked cold so I'm going to drive him to his polling place today.

Every vote counts. :)

3. Sounds like you raised a great kid...
you should be proud. When you see him and other kids like him--you're looking at the future. Good job!

5. A paper which replicates the actual ballot, but with the Democratic candidate checked off.
It also suggests how to vote on the four propositions which are on the ballot in VA-11.

7. He is that. (He's also being recruited to play baseball at VMI.)
He's not sure if the Rat Line would be his cup of tea, but he's giving it some thought.

9. VMI baseball was briefly ranked last year. Beat UVA when they were #1.
VMI - great place to be from...bad place to be at.

10. You sound like a buddy of mine. He's a VMI grad who still lives in Lexington.
He's proud to be a grad, but he doesn't have a lot of good things to say about the experience.
