A Candidate Against Dave "Altria" Albo?

I'm hearing strong rumors that we've found a Democrat to take on Dave "Altria" Albo. More details to follow, but for now, I'll just say that this woman is a nationally award-winning author and journalist, a graduate of Harvard Law School, and a two-time winner of the American Bar Association's Silver Gavel Award.
In contrast, Dave Albo is an booze and cigarette industry shill who cares only about the rich people of his district (actual quote: "My job is to fight for my people, my people are wealthy.").
I can't wait until we have a Democrat running against Albo, and replacing him in the House of Delegates this coming January.

N.T.?
Not "K.W." (Lowell - 4/26/2007 8:12:51 AM)
:)
Hint: think about (Lowell - 4/26/2007 8:13:47 AM)
a certain type of law degree, and that may give you the initials.
Oh I know (novamiddleman - 4/26/2007 9:31:33 AM)
J D
John Doe :)
or maybe
Jane Doe :-p
Well, maybe it's JD and maybe it's LLB. (Catzmaw - 4/26/2007 9:36:47 AM)
Anyone know an LLB who fits the description?
L.LM. (Alokin - 4/26/2007 9:40:20 AM)
I just found a L(R)M who would fit the description..
Clever.... (Lowell - 4/26/2007 9:43:32 AM)
:)
Bingo. My early morning brain freeze prevented me (Catzmaw - 4/26/2007 11:41:16 AM)
from thinking of that one.
Albo (Susan P. - 4/26/2007 9:47:38 AM)
Think Albo will call her a "FemiNazi," or just get Nick Rerras to do so? After all, it's not illegal.
Uhhh.. (MV Democrat - 4/26/2007 10:41:04 AM)
I'm pretty sure that this potential candidate will be able to corner the "feminazi" vote.
Maybe we ought to start a group called Feminazi's Against Rerras & Albo?
I'm In (Susan P. - 4/26/2007 11:49:34 AM)
Let's help this candidate with everything we've got (TheGreenMiles - 4/26/2007 9:57:03 AM)
I can't wait for this race to heat up. I don't think my delegate, Al Eisenberg, is in much trouble (unless you consider winning by less than 70% "trouble"), so I'm eager to help this candidate however I can.
I've heard strong rumors (Eric - 4/26/2007 10:02:37 AM)
as well. Fingers crossed that these rumors turn out to be true. It's long past time to kick Albo to the curb.
Somehow that imagery seems appropriate (Lowell - 4/26/2007 10:05:45 AM)
given that one of his nicknames is Dave "Booze" Albo.
Ha. (Eric - 4/26/2007 10:13:42 AM)
True that discarded beer and cigarettes end up in the gutter. We'll find out this November if discarded Albo follows his two favorite sources of funding into that same gutter.
didn't the filing deadline pass? n/t (Josh - 4/26/2007 10:22:18 AM)
Depends on the method of selection... (FxbAmy - 4/26/2007 10:33:12 AM)
and when the local nominating committee set the deadline.
The filing deadline only passed for a primary (MV Democrat - 4/26/2007 10:35:35 AM)
If no one files for a primary, it reverts to a caucus selection method and candidate deadline is June 12.
Albo opponent's initials: LB ? (Tom Counts - 4/26/2007 10:38:49 AM)
I'm Confused... (Greg Hoss - 4/26/2007 10:53:41 AM)
The filing deadline already passed, so wouldn't anyone running have to be a write-in candidate or is there a way to get on the ballot after the deadline?
No. Read my comment above. (MV Democrat - 4/26/2007 11:06:28 AM)
LM? (noonan - 4/26/2007 2:08:16 PM)
Could it be a very accomplished lady with the initials of L.M. who did a lot of great work last year, particularly to try to defeat the Marriage Amendment? She truly is a brilliant constitutional scholar and a passionate advocate, and we would be privileged to have her in the House of Delegates.
More very astute guesses! (Lowell - 4/26/2007 5:52:22 PM)
:)
My wife's initials are LM (PM - 4/26/2007 7:03:31 PM)
But I just asked her and she's not running. :)
Should be interesting...can't wait to find out who..... (bladerunner - 4/26/2007 3:00:32 PM)
She's Fantastic! (k8 - 4/26/2007 3:12:28 PM)
I know her and she's fantastic. If she runs, I'd like to ask all of you who were willing to support me to please throw all your support behind her. She's incredibly intelligent, extremely articulate and very knowledgeable on the issues. If she debates Albo, he's in for the debate of his life! She'll run circles around him.
Kate Wilder
You KNOW she's got to be good... (Lowell - 4/26/2007 5:53:12 PM)
...if she's got the Kate Wilder seal of approval! :)
