Much has been said of Virginia Lieutenant Governor Bill Bolling’s vote with Democrats on amendments to a voter ID bill.  A review of recent headlines begs the question of what alliance is the leadership of the purportedly conservative Virginia House of Delegates creating with Senate Republicans Democrats.

First, the leadership in the House of Delegates watered down photo ID bills at the committee level, but eventually passed the Virginia Senate and now the Washington Post reports from a well sourced leak that the Virginia Speaker of the House of Delegates (a Republican) leader is considering a plan to kill the redistricting plan drafted by…. Senate Republicans.  You would assume the plan helps Republicans. To maintain a majority.  In Virginia.  Ok, apparently, this is a tough call for Republicans in the House of Delegates.  And this: Democrats have been pushing the Republican Governor to veto the redistricting plan that created a new black majority minority district.

Good luck trying to make sense of it all.
