The most lead sounding city names in each state.

I don't like her that much, but VA isn't ready for a true social democrat. So probably the right choice.

She's the best we are going to do for now. Little by little we are pricing all the country rubes out of the state.

Sounds like Ohio voted in favor of Abortion rights and the Republicans might take it away anyway.

I posted about this last week. Not at all surprised. The faster these pols croak, the better.

Spanberger will run for VA-Gov. Probably a good candidate. They can't run the Defund BS against her (though they will) and she is stalwart Pro-Choice and will eviscerate the forced birthers.

I think we may be headed to full Dem control of VA.

Yep. The cruelty is the point. I thought a lot more about humanity before I figured that out.

Humanity is fine. The Right is the problem.

This is totally how non-banana republics work.

Also, the Eugene MiLB team’s Exploding Whales gear is awesome.

I dated a girl from Florence, and this is easily the most memorable thing that ever happened there*. Also one of the most apt, as the town has typically been inhabited by drunk loggers.

My GF's dad had 18 DUIs and still had his license. Dawn comes soon enough for the working class.

* Though I would pick the erection of the Siuslaw River Bridge, for my money one of the most beautiful structures in North America.

My family is from Florence and that’s where my parents live part time now.

Edit: Read the article, not going to partially dox myself.

I will note that the two Democrats who lost their gubernatorial races in Louisiana and Mississippi were both anti-choice Democrats.

Excellent choice.

Yeah that's a good choice. It's VA, so you don't need a progressive home run, you just need to hold (at least for now). She'll hold the center while ticking some of the necessary boxes like pro-choice, and then let Winsome and "I taught my mom the pledge" battle it out for crazy town and scare the suburbs away.

That would be excellent!
