I must say that, despite the 1 hour time constraint that McDonnell had, he answered a good number of questions with solid answers. I liked his answer to my "cross-aisle" appeal question should he run for Governor in 2009, and the allusion to his "very civil relationship" with Governor Tim Kaine, even though they publicly disagree on issues (as he puts it, they disagree "amicably, because that's what Virginians expect and deserve from their statewide leaders").
His stance on the smoking ban is the same as mine (and many others, like phriendlyjaime).
Eileen's question on DGIF (which I felt she was trying to get the AG to say something she could jump on) was handled very well by the AG, when he replied with one sentence..."The long-standing, bipartisan, policy of this office is we do not comment on ongoing investigations."
So McDonnell doesn't have The Podium or Daily Whackjob as a favorite blog...boo! He does read some excellent blogs, such as Mason Conservative, Bearing Drift, and Sic Semper Tyrannis. I do like that he does have his staff keep an eye on the blogs, McDonnell knows the value of blogs in measuring the public mood.
