I just came across this interesting post -- perhaps a foreshadowing of things to come -- on political newcomer Bob Berry's campaign website for U.S. Senate.

"This page will keep you up to date on what Bob is thinking about the U.S. Senate and Virginia's role in it," it reads.

Then there is a list titled: "Press Releases from Bob Berry that are soon to come"

Critisizing Congress for delaying FISA provisions
Condeming the Senate consideration of the Law of the Sea Treaty (LOST)
Announcing Bob Berry's Candidacy for the U.S. Senate
Bob Berry's plan to create Mid Atlantic Transportation Commission (MATC) -- a visionary body to make actionable plans for the region's long term transportation needs.

Berry, a self-described conservative, is fighting against former Gov. Jim Gilmore and state Delegate Robert G. Marshall for the Republican nomination, which will be decided at the party convention in late May.

The winner will face Mark R. Warner -- the popular former Democratic governor with deep pockets.
