VA: Democratic Stronghold!
The people have spoken in the Great Commonwealth, and have shouted from the treetops "We love Democrats!"
OK, so that MIGHT not be what yesterday's vote represents, but its a start! Aimee, you take over from here...
We are a group of friends and acquaintances -- a merry band of pranksters indeed -- who have been arguing about politics on-and-off, then really on, then a little off... since 1998. On email. But that meant literally thousands of emails a year. That was too many. So here's the blog dedicated to carrying on that spirit of political and pop culture argument and dialogue. You might think of us as "schmoliticians", because while we take politics seriously, we try not to take ourselves quite so.

Well, considering that the GOP candidates for Lt. Gov and Attorney General both appear to have won their races, I'm not sure that Kaine's election qualifies as a "shouted from the treetops" endorsement for the Dems. I think it does signal a preference for centrist/moderate politics, however. In fact, I would consider it more of an endorsement for Gov. Warner and a continuation of his policies rather than a mandate for Kaine. This'll proably give Warner some added confidence heading into his run for prez in 2008.
