Gov. Bob McDonnell joined Del.

Gov. Bob McDonnell applauded the award of an offshore wind technology demonstration grant to a Virginia utility and announced today the beginning of a geological survey of the Virginia Wind Energy Area (WEA), encompassing 112,799 acres 23.5 nautical miles offshore Virginia Beach and the Port of Hampton Roads.

Are they all Charlie Brown’s up against a Lucy who keeps saying that she will not pull away the football?
