Waldo Jaquith: The legislature?s most prolific copatrons.

June 10, 2009
The more time that I spend mapping the social relationships of legislators via their copatroning habits, the more fascinated that I am by this mechanism of exploring the General Assembly. It really is a powerful tool. (To see one of the ways I?m using it on Richmond Sunlight now, check out HB1721 , SB1436 , or HB2482 , where you can see a graph indicating the average partisan position of each bill?s cosponsors.) Here?s a less thoughtful usage of this data, but no less interesting: a listi...

I'm Surrounded By Idiots: Republican campaign kickoff event at Stafford Regional Airport: Pictures.

June 5, 2009
Beside the usual suspects of Bob McDonnell, Bill Bolling, Ken Cuccinelli, and newly elected Republican Party of Virginia Chairman Pat Mullins, Senator Janet Vogel made the introductions and Speaker of the House of Delegates Bill Howell and Delegate Mark Cole were also in attendance. Fellow blogger and Stafford County GOP member Scott Hirons was there recording video too. He thinks he?s cool with his HD Camcorder while I only have a lowly MiniDV camcorder?bah! Spotsylvania County GOP Chairman B...

Crystal Clear Conservative: Scenes from the YRFV Convention

April 20, 2009
The Young Republican Federation of Virginia Convention on Saturday was no doubt exciting with the news of Sandy Liddy Bourne stepping aside to join Pat Mullins in his quest to become the next Chairman of the Republican Party of Virginia, but there were also other speakers who spoke. Dan Mitchell of Cato Institute and author of Global Tax Revolution: The Rise of Tax Competition and the Battle to Defend It spoke about our current fiscal crisis with the bailouts and out-of-control spending...

On the Western Banks of the Shenandoah: Legislative Forum at YRFV Convention

April 18, 2009
Cristen Vehorn of the Richmond Area YRS led a forum on the past legislative session. A recap is below.  What was the big issue (other than the budget)? McDougle: All sessions are different and usually have an issue (transportation, eminent domain) but the budget overshadowed everything. Part of that had to do with House limits on bill submissions. One major issue that McDougle cited a victory on was transparency. He said that the smoking ban was overplayed in the media.  Cole: The Smoking ...
