About Me

My name is Jim. I am the proud father of two great sons (Jake and Jonah). My wife Carol is Pastor at Lavalette United Methodist Church.

In my work as State Coordinator of Prevent Child Abuse West Virginia and during my spare time in wild and wonderful West Virginia, I am a children's advocate, a grassroots rabble-rouser, and all-around political geek.

I've been blogging since 2002 and was thrilled to be an officially credentialed blogger at the 2008 Democratic National Convention on behalf of WVaBlue.com.  I've also had the good fortune to be a blogger on Huffington Post.
