Tim Kaine’s Accent-Gate

Augusta Free Press recently wrote, “Kilgore has charged political rival Tim Kaine, the presumptive Democratic Party gubernatorial nominee, with making light of his accent in a cheap attempt to win votes…”

Jerry, this charge sounds like something campaign stress can do…

Because most folks born in Virginia sound like ‘Hicks from the Sticks’ — and I’m including ‘the blue dog’ and other Bacon bloggers. Now, I’m not endorsing the “Carry Me Back to Ole Virginny” song and dance litany …

But where was Tim Kaine born, and if it was not in Virginia, how many years did he live in other states?

The Project Vote Smart website has listed the ‘Birthplace’ blank. But curious political minds want to know. Why the mystery??? Was he born in the Midwest? The Northeast? The Leftcoast? Or at Elvis Presley’s Graceland?

Recently, ‘a hunk-of -burning’ media outlets reported, “The Democrat in Virginia’s race for governor speaks with the clipped Midwestern cadence of a game show host.” Perhaps, Mr. Kaine was raised in Kansas! That’s been reported as well.

With his faith-base campaign, Tim ‘the choirboy’ Kaine has let everybody know in Virginia that he spent one year in Honduras with Catholic ministries during law school. The Blue Dog questions why his campaign staff advertises ‘heavenly merit badges’ for ‘earthly political offices’ — yet doesn’t mention his birthplace?

In search of a birthright, frantic VA Democratic Bloggers have been quoting the ‘Almanac of Virginia Politics,’ which lists Kaine’s birthplace as Minnesota and the fact that Kaine graduated from the University of Missouri and Harvard Law School in Massachusetts. Does he have resident time in those three states?

Maybe, Tim ‘a-la-Steve Chapman’ Kaine might have registered to vote in those places to prove his residences? By the way, we bloggers have read the tear-jerking accounts of Chapman’s favorite doggie Mr. Nixon and his demise, but what about the dog’s birthplace?

What’s the real story… err, sorry folks, I’m dogressing again…

Back to Kaine. Is he another case study for alien abductions? NOTE: The Blue Dog is not ‘yip-yapping’ about those illegal Hispanic aliens trampling over our unprotected Mexican-American borders either. I’m talking about space aliens and UFOs!

For all we know, Tim ‘the spaceboy’ Kaine might have been born in the desert ranchland north of the little town of Roswell, New Mexico. But enough of the conspiracy theories…

Where in the heck was Tim Kaine born?
