Speaker Howell doesn’t get it

In Friday’s edition of the Washington Times, “Democrats: GOP rift spells gains in the House” talks of Virginia Democrats who are aiming to capitalize on the Republican Party’s recent split over tax increases; as a result they are putting up more candidates this year for the House races.

In response, the Speaker of the House of Delegates, Bill Howell, is quoted saying:

“We are a team. We are united…” “[The tax fight] is behind us.”

Hello? Earth to Speaker Howell: Please stop listening to the Kilgore campaign propaganda and start talking to the conservative wing of your Party.
