The Race is on for Obama Inaugural Tickets
Sen. James Webb (D-Va.) reports his office is being overwhelmed with requests for tickets to President-Elect Barack Obama's swearing-in ceremony Jan. 20.
As of this morning, Webb's office had already fielded 15,000 requests for tickets. But there is one major problem: He expects he will have only 500 tickets to distribute.
"Space is limited and we have an extensive waiting list, but we will do our best to accommodate as many Virginians as possible," said Jessica Smith, a Webb spokeswoman.

Great blog - however can someone tell me why the link to the VA Republican Party goes to the wrong website?
I would hope it was an oversight and not a blatant misrepresentation of the facts by the Washington Post.
