Two new polls show Republican Ed Gillespie closing in on Democratic incumbent Mark Warner in the Virginia Senate race. Christopher Newport University, which had Warner up 12 points earlier in the month in its survey, now has Warner's lead down to 7.
More provocatively, The Daily Caller reports on a new poll from Vox Populi that has Gillespie down only 4 points.

Warner cannot possibly be Cantored and therefore you right wing nuts should ignore this meaningless poll!

This right wing nut will vote for Gillespie and hope to Cantor the liberal. I’m hoping for a wave.

If someone has to tell you your vote shouldn’t count.

Mark Warner is among a slew of Dems who haven’t endorsed
Harry Reid as majority leader---said recently in a debate that
both parties might be better off with new leadership.

Maybe I will just do something meaningful, like write in Sarah Palin or Allan West.

Voter fraud can cover the discrepancy-right?

OK, somebody tell me just WHY I should vote for Gillespie. Because Warner's reflexive all-in-for-Obama voting record has been disastrous for this country. He helped perpetuate the BS about Americans keeping their health plans under Obamacare.
I'll take Gillespie's political positioning over Warner's any day.

“OK, somebody tell me just WHY I should vote for Gillespie.”
I believe the established reasoning is, ‘Vote for this non-conservative RINO because the socialist DEM is worse...’
Sigh.. As Elvis said in one of his characters, ‘I know I’m supposed to turn the other cheek, but I’m runnin’ out of cheeks!’

Mark Warner is full of more crap than a Christmas goose if he thinks anyone other than low-info types are going to believe that noise, after six years of giving total, completely fealty to Reid and Obama.

Why should you vote for Gillespie?
Because if the GOP doesn’t take the senate, Hillary will be your next president!

Sounds like a very convincing reason! I plan to vote for Gillespie.
To: wastoute
Warner is a rubber stamp for every left wing vote. Gillespie isn’t a bad guy. He’s a little too insider connected, but he’s going to be with you 85% of the time. Seems like an improvement over 10%

He was the best RNC chairman we have had in a long long time. He understands the issues middle class conservatives care about.
