No, I'm not trying to sell some diet or exercise program.  However, it is time for you to get up off the couch and march yourself right into a campaign office near you.  If you live in NOVA, this email may be of interest to you.

Northern Virginia Coordinators ? VA Victory 2005

In my opinion, groups such as Va Victory 2004 and 2005 are crucial to victory.  I said it ages ago, here and here: Pooled resources let unknown candidates be competitive.  Just look at Ken Longmyer, who won almost 40% of the vote against Tom "I was a moderate over a decade ago" Davis in a race for Congress last year.  Ken had less than $75,000 to Davis's $2.1 million , but Ken was able to use the office space, computers, volunteers, phone lines, etc. of Virginia Victory 2004.  If his campaign had to cover all of those costs on their own, he wouldn't have had a prayer. 

Our House of Delegates candidates, such as Dave Marsden, Greg Werkheiser, and Bruce Roemmelt will be even stronger if they can have a helping hand from Tim Kaine, Creigh Deeds, the winner of the June 14th primary for Lt. Governor, and, of course, you.
