In typically understated fashion (ha), Ben Tribbett tweets, "BIG ANNOUNCEMENT COMING AT NOON!" I'm meeting someone for lunch at noon so I won't be around, but if this is what I think it is, I'm very excited and support it 100%. If it isn't what I think it is, then...well, I dunno! :)UPDATE: Yes, it is what I thought it was.
Terry McAuliffe thinks it is time to "insist" on the public option. We couldn't agree more. Terry's agreed to host a fundraiser with Virginia and national bloggers who are insisting on a public option for the first Virginia Congressman who will take our pledge! This will be an awesome event to highlight and honor any Virginia Congressman who shows leadership on this issue. If you would like to be a part of the host committee for this event, shoot me an email at notlarrysabato@hotmail.com. Lowell and I are already on board, and I'm sure there will be many others!

A HUGE Thank You to T-Mac for taking the leadership on this issue right when needed even more firepower. So far in just over two days the pledge has raised $175,000 for Democrats willing to take a stand! As Terry says, now is the time to "insist" on a public option.
