Gov. Tim Kaine is bringing his statehouse road show to Floyd next Friday (Nov. 2) complete with Senatorial wannabe Mark Warner, for a visit to the Country Store and a tour of the downtown rehab project (which the state is financing).

The Friday Night Jamboree will interrupt its usual schedule to accommodate the governor's scheduled arrival at 7 p.m. (which will probably be closer to 7:30) and the arrival will, no doubt, be accompanied with the usual pomp and bluster.

No doubt he will throw in a plug for the Democrats running for local offices. The opportunity will be too good to pass up.
