Al Weed gets first candidate post!
Okay, so not in person. But if you live in the 5th district, or if you live in a district with a "safe" incumbent and are itching to donate time and/or money to a Democrat with a reasonable chance of unseating one of our more regressive Congresscritters, Virgil Goode, then check out Al Weed's campaign if you haven't already.

1. Thanks, maybe I will
I see he posts about the March for Women's Lives on his website and he's going to be there. I'll check him out. Certainly deserves respect for that.

3. Weed
I've been following Al Weed for a few months, and he's almost too good to be true. I'm waiting for the news of a live boy or dead girl!

I think he has a great chance of beating Goode, especially when 5th district voters fully realize just how regressive and intolerant Goode is. Last month or so Goode presented (or supported) a plan to make English the official national language, and then he fights to limit science funding in the state but takes credit for what funding does get through. :puke:

4. goode used to be a dem
and is a horrible turncoat but atleast he owned up to it and became a true pukie.

Weed sounds very good but will need a big influx of donors and a war chest of 750K or more to make a race

The voters in this district a pretty conservative

5. Weed started the first winery in Virginia
He has a rural/small business background that might have some crossover appeal
