Hearing Footsteps

I received a mailing this weak touting all the great things Del. Poisson supposedly has done for the people of northern Virgina. Looks like they (the Democrats) are really desperate. The mailing discussed bills Del. Poisson has introduced -- even if they went no where. For example, the mailing, paid for by the Democratic Party of Virginia and not Del. Poisson's committee, references his introduction of a bill on insurance for autism. Notably, it does not mention that the bill, and virtually all the bills referenced in the mailer, never even made it out of committee. Even his website reverences only the bills he has introduced.

I have nothing against Del. Poisson on a personal level, but his priorities are misplaced and his political presence is lacking.

Time to give someone else a shot.

The 32nd House of Delegates Race is On!

Tag Greason kicked off his bid to replace David Poisson as eastern Loudoun’s representative in the House of Delegates this week with a fantastic party at The Dock in Lansdowne. Obviously, the senior Republican leadership is strongly behind Tag. Rep. Wolf along with Delegates May, Rust and Howell were in attendance with a packed room of supporters.

Poisson is vulnerable – and even the Democratic leadership knows it. Witness the robo-calls this week from Poisson paid for not by Poisson’s campaign but by the Democratic Caucus. Keep in mind that the election is six months away and Poisson already is resorting to the detested pre-recorded message tactic paid for by others. I think he hears footsteps . . .
