I was shocked, SHOCKED, to discover that there were politics at play in Richmond! The Republican's were shocked that the Governors Chief of Staff hinted that there may be retribution if house members do not come up with an acceptable plan. This, of course, was right after the House Republicans initiated hearings on the new Governor's appointees to his cabinet and said that they were doubtful of confirming his nominee to the Secretary of the Commonwealth position. Apparently they want to throw their weight around and to have the Governor buckle and come to them on bended knee.
NO WAY. If power politics are to be played, then throw the elbow. Whether it is fact or a slip of the tongue, it is not a bad thing to remind the Republicans that the game will be played as rough as necessary. I am sure they are upset that Governor Kaine has the audacity to take the transportation issue to the people, using planned radio and television ads and circulars. Apparently they would rather claim to speak for the people, without hearing what they really want.
