Interesting tip from Time Magazine's Mike Allen, appearing yesterday on NBC's Meet the Press:
Democrats are trying to find someone to respond to the State of the Union address. A lot of people obviously wanted Congressman Murtha. Democrats have decided that he can't because he doesn't speak to everyone. So now I would look for a new face, like Governor-elect Tim Kaine of Virginia to give that response.
January could be a very busy month for Kaine, what with this on top of the Inauguration...
So, do you think they are sharpening pencils yet in Richmond?
