Yesterday was the last day to register to vote for VA Governor - Kaine
Fellow Virginians,

We cannot allow our great Commonwealth to be run by such a man as Jerry Kilgore. We have seen what the neo-con agenda has done to our nation. Governor Warner has protected us from the fallout from President Bush's mismanagement. Kilgore would only magnify Bush's ineptitude.

Please tell your friends that Kilgore does not tell them anything about himself in his ads, he only attacks TIM KAINE -- with lies. If he is going to lie to us this much in the campaign, what will he do if he becomes Governor. For example, TIM KAINE expressed his views on the death penalty in the debate -- He is against it personally, but it is the law and he will uphold the laws of the Commonwealth. Tim Kain would not commute any sentences or issue any pardons to get around the law. Tim Kaine would not propose any new laws to abolish the death penalty while in office. Jerry Kilgore still runs the negative ads saying killers will walk free if Tim Kaine is elected.

The Republican party is working to help elect this lying neo-con. I have been called by people from outside the state, reminding me to go to the polls and vote for Kilgore. I have not been called by anyone from the Kaine campaign. Dick Cheney is campaigning for Kilgore. Karl Rove is going to a fundraiser for Kilgore, that should not be a plus in this stage of the Fitzgerald investigation. After the indictments come down, this should be used against Kilgore, "He is endorsed by criminals in high places."

I have watched two of the debates. It floors me that anyone who has seen them could possibly think of voting for Kilgore, but I guess he keeps to his talking points which are the neo-con talking points -- "Democrats tax and spend" - "Tim Kaine has never met a tax he doesn't like" - "Democrats are soft on crime" ... ad nauseum. When the moderator tries to make him commit to a plan for his administration he wiggles out of an answer.

Kilgore is inconsistent. He says he trusts the people, but he doesn't trust the Herndon Town Council to handle it's own day labor problems. Which people does he trust?
TIM KAINE says Herndon is trying to find a local solution to a federal problem and he would work with the federal government to remove the underlying problem so that local governments don't have to make these decisions.

Kilgore trusts the people to raise their own taxes. He acts like he doesn't want that responsibility. Why would we elect someone who will pass off the tough decisions onto referenda. Who would go to the polls every week to make those tough decisions? Don't give Kilgore the responsibility since he doesn't want it. He obviously can't handle it.

Come on people, RAISE KAINE! Talk up our candidate. Tell everyone that he has been a missionary. TIM KAINE is a good man he cares about people, all people. Tell everyone he has a positive plan for our commonwealth. TIM KAINE can do the job. Urge your friends and neighbors to come out and vote for TIM KAINE on Tuesday, November 8.
