I realize Allen is less than perfect, but how could Kaine even be close? He couldn’t be anymore married to 0bama without being his husband. The ONLY thing that will give that seat to the dems is the fact the election is a presidential year, and all of the FSA(Free Shit Army) members will crawl out of their alleys and housing projects to vote straight democrat while in the process of voting for their messiah.
It will go just like last time with Allen, and this time the GOP presidential candidate, barely hanging on to a narrow lead until late at night when a handful of precincts in dem strongholds will report in with enough numbers to put Kaine and 0bama over the top. Sadly, we’ve seen this movie before.....
I can’t read their crosstabs, but the poll does show a 52 to 26% enthusiasm gap in the R’s favor.
With all the new R Reps like Griffin the SW will be much better for us. Also anger at the tobacco buyout has mostly passed (despite comments above).
I don’t think NOVA and Charlottesville can pull it off this time.
Unlike last time there will be an anti-Obama bote this year too. Iy will be interesting to see the media try to portray it as ‘racist’.
