Sen. Ken Cuccinelli ... through the eyes of a child

Her name was Loradana (pronounced laura-donna) and she was an 11-year-old home school student from the Shenandoah Valley. At the Americans For Prosperity Summit, she walked up to Sen. Ken Cuccinelli, a home school dad, and asked for his autograph. I could see the look of respect on her face as she watched him sign her AFP notebook ... this adopted child from Romania who is part of a conservative family that supports Sen. Cuccinelli in his run for Attorney General in 2009.

Loradana is from a family of six children. Her mom and I are friends from home schooling together and from politics. I helped teach an American Girl class for the home schoolers and Loradonna was in my class when she was eight years old ... and we bonded and are friends still. She is a special little girl with a big heart and an outgoing personality, and always has a ready hug for me whenever we see one another ... and we are both supporting Sen. Cuccinelli, a fellow conservative and a fellow home schooler.
