Programming note: This morning, Gov. Tim Kaine will be on WTOP with Gov. O'Malley of MD and Mayor Fenty of DC. The show begins at 10:00 AM on WTOP (103.5), and the call-in number is 877-222-1035. Here's your chance to ask him whatever's on your mind.

UPDATE #2: Tim Kaine slams Jeff Frederick over his "voter fraud" allegations:

In an interview on WTOP radio, Kaine called Frederick's (Prince William) assertion "ridiculous."

"I think that is slandering the reputation of hardworking Virginians who care about elections and who want people to care about this process," Kaine said. "You know, I don't like to see folks doing things in the heat of a tough election to suggest they are trying to winnow down turnout and that is what I view (Frederick's) effort as."

I love that Mark Plotkin asks the same question three ways in a row, haha.  


Larry Sabato speaks (zztop - 7/29/2008 12:44:33 PM)
Sabato has a thoughtful commentary on Kaine, but this paragraph sort of stood out.

"Few nonpartisan observers in Virginia regard Kaine's tenure in the Governor's Office as particularly successful. Having known every governor since Albertis Harrison (1962-1966) and having studied the records of the dozen most recent governors, I would characterize Kaine's term to this point as belonging to the bottom quartile. To be fair, he has a year and a half to go, and sometimes a Virginia governor can make a final push that raises his grade considerably."

Frederick's voter suppression campaign (martin lomasney - 7/30/2008 12:07:25 AM)
Republicans know it's the only way to hold Va for McCain.

Rehnquist and his pals were doing this in Az in the 60s for Nixon.  It's a classic and the way to counter it is an immediate injunction action against the RPV to prohibit them from carrying out their suppression efforts.
