Virginia’s demographics continue to change. The growth of the Federal government is causing growth in northern Virginia, with its large number of government workers. Northern Virginia could also be known as Southern Maryland politically.
I live in NoVa. iNorthern VA, especially Fairfax and Loudoun went GOP in 2009 and 2010. Gerry Connolly almost lost. I don’t think NoVa will be a safe haven for dems is 2012.
The GOP doesn’t have to win Fairfax in 2012. just not lose by so much. I think Loudoun is more republican now that it was in 2008 and 2006.
Virginia holds elections for state legislature in a few weeks. The results might hold clues as to how the state will go in 2012.
And the Obama administration has been VERY good for DC.
I don’t think Kaine will do well. Taxation is a sore subject now.
We should donate NoVA to DC or Maryland. I'm sick of them offsetting our votes, and they would be politically happier there. I'm beginning to know what it feels like to be a conservative/libertarian type person living in the interior regions of California or PA, and it sucks!
You won't find that in Maryland.
Now, about the current campaign ~ for the legislature. We get 5 to 10 calls a day from the Democrat robocall machine. About every other day there's an additional call from a person ~ and whoever answers the phone pushes back and tells them to DROP US FROM YOUR ROBOCALL ~ or else.
Eventually as we get closer to November they will send somebody around to knock on our door.
That poor batarde is liable to be beaten severely!!!!!!
It's the calls. They think they are making friends with the robocalls but they're not!
George Barker is in some serious trouble here ~
