My automatic transmission lost Drive (D1) one time while I was going 70 mph on 270. I put it in second gear(D2) and slowed down to 45 mph. The RPMs went from 3,000 to 7,000 when it lost Drive.

NRA preaches responsible gun ownership. The guy who shot the bad guy was a NRA instructor. He is a hero. At the same time, we do need stronger background checks so that nutcases like the perp. can't legally get guns. The NRA should compromise a bit with the Gun Control Nuts. But, banning legal gun ownership is not the answer.

Horrible fear mongering ad. It will likely hurt Northram more than help him.

I think Gillespie can win this. He almost beat Mark Warner for Senate in '14, coming out of nowhere to hold a lead until Fairfax and Arlington Counties won it for Warner. Nothram is not well known.

The libs. on the school board are SJW Snowflakes I heard (R) Elizabeth Schultz on WMAL this morning. Basically, the Board didn't listen to the community, who wanted "Stuart". Also, Apparently, the Board wanted "Thurgood Marshall" from the start but some unflattering information came to light about Marshall's personal life, so, being petrified of any controversy, like the Snowflakes they are,
