Folks,
I’ve had the honor of being Tim Kaine’s friend since we met at Harvard Law School in 1980. For over 40 years, I’ve watched him wholeheartedly serve Virginia, first as mayor of Richmond, then as my Lieutenant Governor, and later Governor, before serving together in the United States Senate.
(We also make a pretty good band – here’s us jamming at the Floyd Country Store in VA)
This means I’ve spent a lot of time with Tim and gathered plenty of intel on him. So as I sat down to write this email asking you to support Senator Kaine’s re-election campaign, I found myself wondering exactly what I should say to you to assure you that Tim is the right choice to represent Virginia in Congress. And then it dawned on me: I want to tell you the top 3 things that annoy me the most about Tim Kaine.

First off, Tim is way too nice! As a former civil rights attorney and missionary, he’s spent his entire career committed to social justice, being driven by the value of kindness and the belief that it can change peoples’ lives. And he’s a genuinely good guy on top of that.
Second, he’s ridiculously good at playing the harmonica. Seriously, he carries them in his briefcase, just in case a jam session breaks out on the Senate floor.
Third and finally, and I’ve said this before, he’s a deeply optimistic person. Sometimes I can be a glass half-empty kind of guy, but Tim’s always seems about ⅔ full.
We need someone like Tim Kaine in the Senate. Tim’s value of kindness and decency is what drives his undying dedication to serving the people of Virginia. And in a Congress plagued by partisan division, Tim’s relentless optimism keeps him from giving up in the crucial fights to protect voting rights, safeguard a woman’s right to choose, and more. Now the harmonica… that one might not always translate to his work as a Senator, it’s just really great to watch.
The thing is, Tim’s seat could very well determine if the GOP takes control this year. Republicans are working overtime to oust him and take back control of the Senate. So I’m asking you today if you can split a $5 donation between my campaign and Tim Kaine’s so we can send him, his kindness, impressive harmonica playing, and optimism back to the Senate?
