Obama is going to need to try to score a knockout blow in the debates. But McCain can do nasty with a smile - Obama just looks brittle and snappish.

Sen. John McCain is having healthy lead over his democratic rival...

Don't get me wrong, I like this article but it reads like a translation from a foreign report.

Obama will not win Va. The Demographics don’t favor him. McCain is a Republican who polls well in Northern Va. He polls over 40%, so he is in good shape.

Plus, Democrats have won VA statewide by running as conservatives. Obama is not running as a conservative. VA hasn’t gone for a Democrat presidential candidate since LBJ.

Yeah, the CNN has McCain +4, the Survey has Obama +4...the other polls are much closer. Time will tell, but the plus 4 for Obama is definitely an outlier. Here’s the RCP page on Virginia.
