There seems to be a pattern with Governor Kaine

Let us hearken back to the 2005 campaign when candidate Kaine (D-Liberal) was saying just about anything to get elected.

Candidate Kaine

"I cut taxes as mayor of Richmond. As governor, I'll do the same for all Virginians."

Governor Kaine only a few months later:

Gov. Tim Kaine will seek higher taxes on vehicle purchases and automobile insurance premiums

Candidate Kaine

"I will enforce the death penalty handed down by Virginia's juries"

Governor Kaine

"Virginia Gov. Timothy M. Kaine announced Tuesday that he is halting all executions"

It seems democrats in Virginia have quite a history of saying one thing to get elected, only to do another once in office.
