Allen, Kaine Discuss Silver Line, Social Security, Political Idols and More

U.S. Senate candidates answer questions posed by our Northern Virginia readers.

Last month, Patch asked our readers in Northern Virginia for a favor.

We wanted to submit questionnaires to both U.S. Senate candidates in Virginia and we wanted our readers to come up with the questions.

You all delivered. Patch posed a list of 10 questions to former governors and U.S. Senate candidates Tim Kaine (D) and George Allen (R), ranging in topics from Social Security to drug abuse in high schools.
