Strangely, though, the RT says "Dave Nutter's moderate glow has faded" (to which I say what?).  A moderate when? But, finally, the RT seems to have figured out that a single vote against gridlock does not a long-term moderate make. The RT cites only one instance in which Nutter acted as a "moderate,"  when he supported Mark Warner's budget just once.  What was more telling is how Dave Nutter responded to his being taken to the Republican woodshed. He fell in line, no matter how wrong it was. Since that time, as the RT notes, Nutter has voted against progress, equality,and (even) open government.  No moderate there!

It's not that things have been all that great for him.  It's a real case of DWBD (driving while being Dave, or DWBR--driving while being Republican).  That means that while driving, or doing anything else with too much thinking time on their hands, Republicans just can't help themselves.  They spend their time thinking of new ways to obstruct Tim Kaine.  And they'll do it even when doing so makes no sense.

It wasn't always that way. But Morgan Griffith made him "stand in the corner," as some in Richmond like to joke.  Dave's support of the Warner budget got him in real trouble.  In the Virginia House, it's not cool to vote with a Dem, even if doing that would be the best thing for Virginia.  

But there is more, much more... (For the news, follow me below the fold.)
