Fifth District Fridays with Joe Thomas

Every Friday, Joe Thomas does interviews with all the candidates.

This week there were some interesting comments from several of the candidates.

Most outrageous claim Lawrence Verga "I am the candidate that the Virginia TEA party is supporting"  I would love to hear from the TEA party folks about this but I just don't think they have endorsed.  As a matter of fact, I don't think they legally can.

Most out of touch with reality Jim McKelvey "There will be well over 100 new people in the Congress"  What has he been smoking ?

Worst reason to win the nomination- tie- Feda Kidd- I have been around for twenty years.  If that is the reason, you had better find another.  You are telling people you are the establishment person ?  Should we put this on the next line instead as an attack on Verga, McKelvey, Ferrin, McPadden and Schultz ?

Lawrence Verga- I have never been an elected official.

Best Attack on another candidate  Feda Kidd on Jim McKelvey You can't go sit on other people's desks and yell at them.

Best Comment tie Ken Boyd  Pay down the debt.  Robert Hurt- Beat Tom Perriello
