we're talking about counties of fairfax, prince william, and it supports the city of alexandria.t the growth. it was the political shift to the democrats. in 2012 northern virginia went to president obama by an average of 25 points. used to be a 50-50 region. never the less, there are still indications that virginia remained a swing sfait state. while its governor is a democrat, the statehouse is controlled by republicans. the virginia state senate was a 50-50 split, although that's going to change today. democratic state senator phillip puckett is expected to announce his resignation giving the gop a temporary 20-19 majority. we get more into that resignation here in a minute with founder and director of the university of virginia center for politics. larry, always good to see you. we're going to talk virginia i got to start with you. >> good morning. thank you thanks. >> is virginia culturally a southern state anymore? >> no. it's a middle atlantic state. there are parts of virginia that are still very southern, like southwest virginia, like south side virginia, but northern vi

here's how fans reacted to the news down in alexandria, virginia this morning. >> if the name is that offensive to someone, i mean, i would hate for the team to beed with that negativity. i think the patent office is correct. >>> another appearance on the hill by gm chief executive mary barra. she faced more questions about why the automaker took more than a decade to address a deadly ignition defect blamed for 13 deaths. we also heard from the victims of gm's failure to act sooner. >> my name is candice anderson, and i'm a survivor of the gm admission defect. so many families have been affected by gm's negligence. november 15th of 2004 i was at the wheel of a 2004 saturn ion that veered off the road and struck a tree, killing my best friend, jean michael ericsson. for the better part of ten years i've carried this unnecessary guilt that i was the cause of michael's death, that i was the cause of a mother to lose her only son so tragically, that i was the cause of two innocent girls to cry for their dad who will never come home. who will never see them marry and who will never see his

bob kyll told me about one of the programs at the alexandria technical community college. by the way, a community college that has been doing this for a while and doing a great job. this student had 14 job offers before he graduated. all 14 employers said that they would pay him to get his engineering degree. now, i bet if you ask most recent graduates from a four-year or even a graduate degree program, they would be jealous of that kind of eagerness from employers. so that's a program that has been working and with good reason. employers were involved in the program from day one. so they helped to shape the curriculum to their needs. this is obviously more effective than a training program with no connection to the needs of employers or as labor secretary tom perez calls it train and pray. and our education system needs this, this focus on skills for jobs that exist. careers are different than they were a generation ago. very few people stay working in one job from one company for their entire life anymore, and as technology progresses faster and faster, workers are going

we know a couple of stories where, for example, he was in alexandria for some time and then some biker started talking to him. we had -- we think there might have been some attraction from the biker to heim, but heim actually really feared this might have been some sergeant, some massad agent or nazi hunter who was after him so he left immediately and went somewhere else. so he was still very cautious. did he live a happy life? definitely -- i mean, look, he had his older son didn't want to have anything to do with him. he did not visit his father in egypt. we know that the younger son went to egypt a couple of times and was there. was he happy that he was away from his family? definitely not. but he kind of like adopted, as nick said earlier, to the situation, and he adopted the family of the egyptian hotel owner, and then maybe you want to say something about his death. >> before i get to this death there was sort of a central irony here which is that he fled germany to spare his family, and to avoid justice. and if he had stayed, i think it's very likely, having looked at other case

. >> alexandria, i interrupted you. >> was just going to say i knee a student who lost her disciplinary hearing because she had a previous sexual relationship with the offender and the board decided based on the previous relationship it was okay for him to cake few -- take cues from her body language, that even though she was saying no, the girl wanted it, which is literally the school saying no meansey. >> you asked -- means yes. >> i don't pretend to be an expert on the administrative process but what i hear from the prosecution side where we still have problems, especially if -- so the high focus and if the school is underpinning a complain, there's enhanced reaction and almost feeling like i need to make sure that i'm being so appropriately consistent with title ix that you can get a overreaction mary response and we can get cross-wise with our local law enforcement. so, example, timely warning requirement. if a survivor is not ready to move forward yet, but they're struggling with, like, legal strugglely with, if they're serious or ongoing threat i don't know because they're not te

now we will go back to your calls and we will talk with william here in the area in alexandria, virginia. hello. caller: yes, good morning, think you for taking my call. that i amted to say very happy you are covering this . the world war ii memorial is a very special one for my family. my father, although he was not in d-day, he was with the marine division. he ran the beaches for different times with that group, including iwo jima and saipan. so this memorial is very dear to us. unfortunately, he never got to see it. he died in 2003, the year before it was opened and dedicated. there are a couple of things i wanted to say. i am very interested in world war ii because of my father's experience. i am a veteran and my son is a veteran. i learned quite a bit in my studies. one thing that has always interest me when people talk about the start of world war ii and how it started, and who started it. iny few seem to realize that 1939, that september 1, it was germany that invaded first. poland was later, invaded from the other side of the country, which is the eastside, by the forces of the u
