    Wow. He did a lot of work for the last 10 years. He left out the work he’s doing now, though.

    Does he cut lawns? Deliver the morning newspaper? Is he a short order cook?

    He seems really eager to cut oil subsidies. I wonder what he’s proposing to cut farm subsidies.

    Brian,

    Seems to me Glenn is interviewing (with Virginia Second’s voters) for his next job.

    Seems to me he has some strengths in his resume that Thelma’s resume does not show.

    Thelma’s shows recent experience as Virginia Second’s representative in the House, a real black mark on her resume.

    Instead of borrow and spend Thelma, we could select Glenn Nye who is in favor of a balanced federal budget. That’s a change I could live with.

    David, you’ve written “even if the Democratic nominee was Bozo the Clown, he would have my vote”

    Here you’re proving it.
