RaisingKaine spoke with Virginia State Senator Mary Margaret Whipple, Democrat of Arlington, for several minutes last night at the Jefferson Jackson Day dinner in Richmond. Whipple hinted that Jim Dyke of Reston, former Virginia Secretary of Education under Governor L. Dougas Wilder and chairman of the Northern Virginia Business Roundtable, was mulling throwing his hat in the already crowded ring for Lt. Governor.
