The AFP on WREL: Politics talk

Chris Graham

AFP editor Chris Graham talks news and politics with WREL-1450AM’s “Online with Jim Bresnahan.”

The segment begins with talk on the ongoing negotiations in Congress over the national debt ceiling. Chris gives insight into a conversation that he had with Virginia Lt. Gov. Bill Bolling, a Republican who seems more focused on the importance of getting the deal done and what a done deal can mean for business. That is the approach that many on both sides of the aisle seem to favor, Chris says, given the economic uncertainty of the time.

A review of campaign-finance numbers in the Virginia Senate race and then a switch of gears to talk a little Valley League baseball wrap us up.
