Re: “Can Eric Cantor Save the GOP?”
You do realize you are publishing in Richmond, Virginia right? Barack Obama carried the city of Richmond by 77.81% to a miserable 20.54% for Mitt Romney.
Want to please your core readership? Give us an article that discusses the probability of Eric Cantor choking to death on a martini olive, a filet mignon, or maybe even a mouthful of roast beef sandwich served on challah.
Yeah Eric, we remember how you requested that Jack Abramoff name a roast beef sandwich served on challah after you.
Editors of Style Weekly: if this is the sort of puff piece nonsense you want to publish, then perhaps you would do well to relocate to Short Pump where this tripe wouldn't be greeted by a chorus of contemptuous laughter.

Re: ““Personhood” Gets Personal”
I was at the press conference and I found the testimony very moving, especially Ms. Anderson's. I also shot a video of the event, so if you'd like to hear her and the other advocates in their own words, then follow this link:

Re: “Rattle and Run”
I have the same problem. I live in the Shockoe Slip area. These guys are thugs. They have been known to damage the cars of those who complain about their behavior. Richmond Police are not doing enough to enforce the law, and the law needs to be strengthened.

Re: “The Hose Down”
The reason small entertainment businesses struggle in Richmond is the admissions tax. Businesses that rely on admissions fees for the majority of their income are basically taxed twice by the city on the same income, once through the admissions tax and then again through the business license tax. This over-taxation cripples small, entertainment-based businesses.
