Announcing a statewide blitz to patch the potholes generated by the recent storms and cold weather.
He’s asked VDOT to “focus efforts during March on patching the thousands of potholes giving motorists bumpy reminders of the hard winter Virginia has endured.”
While’s he at it,
He might send a crew over to Capitol Square
Where they have about 15 days to patch up the cracks between the House and the Senate that seem to be getting increasingly larger.
Maybe they’re just the standard roadblocks and diversion cones that each side brings out every year
Budget differences
Safety net controversies
Those testy social issues like funding Planned Parenthood
For positioning’s sake prior to the real negotiations.
Or just the inevitable result of dealing with a relentlessly depressing economic climate for which there’s been no relief.
Personally, I’m still betting that the patchwork will be successful and the March 13th adjournment will take place on time.
But there’s more than a few legislators starting to worry that some of these axle-rattling craters have
Sinkhole potential.
