Virginia GOP Poised to Pass Statewide Smoking Ban; Indiana Next?
Submitted by lpin on Sun, 11/23/2008 - 09:07 |Richmond, Virginia -- Republicans are desperate to win back the suburban voters who lifted the party to prominence in the 1990s only to abandon the GOP for moderate Democrats in recent years.
Suburban voters have just one question for Republican lawmakers: What problem have you solved for us lately? That's a real chin- scratcher, but Republicans know they had better come up with an answer pretty fast or they could lose next year's gubernatorial election and forfeit their majority in the House of Delegates, the GOP's final toehold in state government.
There's a catch. Building roads and schools for fast-growing suburban communities takes a lot of money, and cash is in short supply now. There aren't many problems that can be solved gratis, but there is one.
