Thank you so much for volunteering!
I think Romney wins the state by 5 or 6 points. Bush won the state by 8 in 2004. I think blacks will come out in greater numbers for Obama than they did for Kerry (obviously). That stated, it won’t be enough to save him.
If Bush won by 8, then Romney wins by at LEAST 6. And if WE are worried about Virginia, well, then we may as well accept that Democrats will win elections for the next 100 years.
The VA “Rule of Thumb” for the GOP has always been to be competitive @ 50/50 in NOVA, then the rest of the state will sweep in our candidate.
NOVA is now far more lib than it was in the 1990s, not that long ago. It’s certainly a reflection of the growth of government (and the contractors that feed off govt).
