George,

I agree with Lloyd. The question of who did what for whom in my Congressional race seems to me to be a tempest in a teapot. What happened three years ago isn't nearly as important as what's happening right now, right here in Virginia, with our statewide campaigns. Everyone should be intensely involved now in ensuring a Democratic victory on November 8. I'm doing my part by organizing fundraisers for Tim Kaine and Leslie Byrne, helping sponsor events for Creigh Deeds and David Toscano, and giving time and money to other local races. We must continue Mark Warner's legacy and keep Virginia moving forward. Let's stay focused, and keep working.
