Kaine to teach at the University of Richmond
Gov. Tim Kaine will announce today that he is joining the faculty at the University of Richmond after he leaves office in January, sources close to the governor say.
Kaine will teach two classes -- one at the Jepson School of Leadership Studies and one at the university's law school. He previously taught an ethics class at the law school. He will teach one class a semester.
Kaine will also begin serving full time as chairman of the Democratic National Committee after Republican Bob McDonnell is sworn in as governor.
White House officials and the governor said yesterday that Kaine will continue to serve as DNC chairman despite gubernatorial losses for his party Tuesday in Virginia and New Jersey.
Kaine held a news conference yesterday in which he talked about returning home to his family's previous house in the Ginter Park section of Richmond.

That seems to be a sound move. What do you foresee in Kaine's political future? Yesterday, he blew off running for office again. But he seems to be a talented politician. Despite this year's drubbing in VA, do you think he'll stay involved in national politics after his DNC chairmanship ends?
