The House of Delegates is wasting no time finishing one of its touchier agenda items. In an unusually rapid scheduling move, the chamber could vote today on confirmation of a gay judicial nominee it rejected less than a year ago. By confirming Tracy Thorne-Begland, delegates could erase an embarrassing stain from the commonwealth’s reputation.
