Somebody Told Me...

...That I needed to update my Blog. So, here we are with an update.

I've decided to follow up on my "Gravy Train" post. I want to know what you 1 or 2 readers think: Do the street musicians make any money? One day I think I'll drag my saxophone out in front of the Treasury building, or maybe out by the Ellipse or something. See how much money I can cash in. I figure, "Heck, I've gotta be at least as talented as 70% of these guys...if they were really that good, they'd be in a band!" It isn't nice, but is it really that far from the mark?

Another topic for today is the Virginia Governor's election. I'll admit it, my guy didn't win. However, if a Democratic victory in this VA election can propel current Governor Mark Warner (D) into contention for the Presidential Nomination in 2008. In all seriousness, if Hillary runs, she will most likely win the nomination. And, if the Republicans don't win next time, I'd rather see a President Warner than another President Clinton. After all, VA hasn't gone down the toilet with Warner as governor...quite the opposite, in fact. VA is one of the few states with a rather large budget surplus!

Perhaps it will take another Democrat to balance the budget? If it does, it won't be Hillary.
