Rumor central

Bearing Drift has the lowdown on a blast story from Saturday night - Governor Bob McDonnell would be resigning.
Why?
Why six month before his term ends?
I haven't been following the supposed scandal about McDonnell gifts - too much partisan "he said, he said" and thinking gifts have any influence on political decisions.
If you're in politics, you attract people with similar mindsets. It would have to be a major, major gift to make a difference.
A "Global Crossing" size windfall.
At this point of the administration, it's keep things going until the new guy starts in January.
While they talk in Richmond, it's time to gear up for November.
The next four years matter more than the possible problems of the current crew.
