Purely???

Perhaps that’s the view in far-off Long Island ...

Here in the trenches, we see a bit more clearly. Bob McDonnell is a very strong candidate, and has run a largely positive campaign. Yes, he’s an anti-0bama, but he hasn’t run explicitly as such. He has been running FOR himself ... something that Republicans have not done lately.

This would be an interesting election, a good study in contrasting candidates and contrasting campaign styles even if the Big Zero weren’t sitting in the White House.

I wish I could say the same thing was happening in my backyard in NJ...
