Really, common folks..especially the poor don't mean anything to politicians anymore... especially to the GOP. It's just spineless to throw the weakest (poor children) under the bus first. Here's the "jobs governor" (my a$$) eliminating more jobs in his first budget than he'll ever create while he's in office. Seems like folks would learn to not vote for someone whose party has traditionally hurt them, their families, and their area just because they are well adept at blowing hot air. But VA, and this area in particular did go for Dubya twice..go figure. Makes me question the brain power of the majority of folks around here. Sure he won't raise your income tax, he'll just raise taxes on every other necessity you need and strip away any help struggling families depend on.. And in most situations, it always seems like the children suffer first and most..and it's a **** shame.
