Ping
The ObamaKaine path is now overgrown with thorns & thickets and festooned with potholes.
Sounds to me they are preparing for a major loss.
Throwing Deeds under the bus so as not to suffer when he’s defeated. Wow. This Admin is about as mature as the playground bullies they used to be. You know the type.
“surge voters” ???????????
Deeds’ fate was sealed when Doug Wilder declined to endorse him - kiss of death for a Dem here in VA.
DNC party unity has been eroding under Obama. This is the reason why it is becoming "every Democrat for himself" on healthcare.
The buck stops......with Bush.
Throwing Deeds under the bus pingage.
Virginia will see a three way Republican landslide on 11/3, McDonnell, Bolling and Cucinelli will all win in runaways. The Repubs will also pick up a significant number of House of Delegates seats. If Deeds was the only Dem (of the Dem party’s candidates for Governor, Lt. Governor and Attorney General) to lose 11 days from now then the WH could credibly spin that he was a terrible candidate and this is no reflection on Obama or the Dem party. But if there is a giant Repub sweep in a State that voted overwhelmingly for Obama and the Dems in 2008, 2006 and 2005 then the WH spin will be laughed at.

So he needs to wash his hands of anyone he sees as losers, or potential losers; because that may tarnish the "Obama's a Winner" silverplating.
The Obama Team is now saying that Deeds' misdeed was "waiting until the last minute" to buddy up to Obama's agenda, as a way to blame Deeds for the possible (hopefully) loss in VA.
Unfortunately for the Obama Team and this spin of theirs, Obama headlined a Deeds fundraiser for big donors, and a later rally for peons and media way back in August (Aug.6th, precisely); so the Deeds team has been buddied-up with Obama for months now, and it's not helped him at all, apparently.
SPIN! SPIN! SPIN!
LOL!
