Sorry for the light posting today, but I am running back and forth to Fairfax Hospital today. As many of you know my dad is on disability for a number of serious medical reasons, and he is having major surgery today to try and correct one of them. He had to shave his beard for this (which makes it major, I had never seen him without a beard before!). They are going through the front of his neck to operate on the top part of his spine where the neck and back connect. It's a series of back to back operations that should take most of the day.
While I am gone today, I wanted to leave you all with a few things to discuss:
Jennifer McClellan had a devastating article about her in Sunday's Richmond Times Dispatch. Click here to check it out. This doesn't surprise me at all- Jennifer loves playing inside games and walking the ethical line and has for a long time. I don't think the netroots will forget her "neutrality" against Benedict Lambert anytime soon in the recent primary either. It might be time for her to consider resigning.
The Daily Whackjob got a recent Jay O'Brien fundraising letter and put it up here. Ignore their funny comments written on it, and just read the letter. Some of it is really bizarre (having a paragraph for where his kids go to school for no reason) and it reads like Jay is really scared.
Don't forget our U.S. Senate poll closes tonight at midnight, so vote today! 2009 Governor's Poll will start at midnight.
UPDATE: Surgery was successful it looks like, although the drugs haven't worn off yet. Thanks for all the nice comments, thoughts and prayers.
