Many of us in Texas hope that Hillary can make it back to Texas to work on areas that went heavily for her in the primary including the Rio Grande Valley/South Texas and El Paso areas. It is doubtful since we are not a battleground.
Virginia's 2nd Congressional District Debate: Nye v. Drake
We interrupt this coverage of Barack Obama and John McCain, to give you some local political news.
If you haven't guessed, from my coverage of the Virginia Democratic Convention, I live in Virginia. A swing state. Finally! We've been working hard to make Virginia turn blue this year. It's happening in our local elections too. We're actually fielding Democratic candidates in all 11 of our Congressional Districts for the first time since anyone can remember.
Barack Obama’s Statement on 9/11
From Barack Obama’s blog today (emphasis mine):
Today, we honor the memory of the lives that were lost on September 11, 2001, and grieve with the families and friends who lost someone they loved in New York City, at the Pentagon, and in Shanksville, Pennsylvania. We will never forget those who died. We will always remember the extraordinary efforts of our firefighters, police and emergency responders, and those who sacrificed their own lives on Flight 93 to protect their fellow Americans. And we give thanks for the Americans defending us every day in our communities at home, and in our military abroad.
On 9/11, Americans across our great country came together to stand with the families of the victims, to donate blood, to give to charity, and to say a prayer for our country. Let us renew that spirit of service and that sense of common purpose. Let us remember that the terrorists responsible for 9/11 are still at large, and must be brought to justice. Let us resolve to defeat terrorist networks, defend the American homeland, stand up for the enduring American values that we cherish, and seek a new birth of freedom at home and around the world.
