Tim Kaine in Wise

Tim Kaine showed up in Wise at the yearly RAM held at the fairgrounds. RAM is based in Knoxville and has been coming to Wise for several years. Enter Kaine, to a captive audience-

•  "It’s awesome," Kaine said after a clinic tour. "I had heard about it, but no matter what you hear, it really has an impact when you see it.

Hey Tim! That huge Tax increase really helped! Just how much of that surplus is headed our way in SWVA? I feel stumping at such an event, after raising taxes on the ones there is in very bad taste. Kaine has been absent in past years, but this year he shows up all concerned. I don't think his tax credit was what the needy wanted to hear!

My friend Brian has a different take on it.
