1. Missed it entirely yesterday, yank,

'playing' w Powell. Going back to look.

2. How's Powell doing?

3. Lots of activity,

making himself known, fundraisers in L.A. and Boston to compete with moneybags cantor + repugs, not spending on polling. I think trends are good, considering Virginia looks to be moving further toward President Obama, so could help down-ticket Dems, and folks in the district don't like cantor or want to re-employ him.
Fingers crossed.

4. We've got one helluva race going on here in CT. McMahon is unbearable.

So I can sympathize with how you must feel about Eric Cantor.

5. And I'm not even in his STATE!

His District is near me (kind of,) but he's such a louse, and asserts such power (even over Boner!) that its become a national campaign.

Think McMahon can be defeated, in traditionally Democratic Connecticut? We NEED the Senate to remain DEM!

6. My Dem neighbor says he'll move to Vermont if McMahon is elected to represent CT in

the Senate. Hope he's out there pounding the pavement for Murphy...

I don't blame you for working against Cantor. He's bad for the entire country, not just VA.

I lived in NoVa before moving up to CT. Glad to get out of there...
