Yeah, but you wouldnt expect Liberal Loon Perriello to be down by 23. The People's Republic of Albemarle county makes District 5 a distinct shade of purple. And Hurt has competition from an independent tea party candidate.
Perriello has a huge warchest, probably thanks to moveon. If he loses he will have no one to blame but himself and his outrageous voting record.
Goode endorsed Hurt. His word counts for a lot among independents.

You forget that this district was home to Virgil Goode, one of the most conservative individuals in Congress. Little Tommy was a stealth candidate, and you won’t see the people of this district fooled again.
