Is there anything to indicate that Virginia will ever vote for a Republican in a statewide election again?

No, even Roanoke is Democrat. People believe in “democracy”: think the idea is “Jeffersonian”.

In the midst of a massive voter blowback on a galvanizing issue like Obamacare, a Republican has an outside chance in a midterm election in Virginia. But otherwise, this state has been done in electorally by South Maryland, aka, Northern VA. The problem about Warner is most Virginia voters are head-over-heels in love with him, the Obamacare lies notwithstanding. He convinced enough people during his stint as Governor that he was some kind of independent-minded moderate, when the truth is he’s one of Obama’s most loyal Senatorial lapdogs.

We may have passed the point of no return. Virginia suffers more than most states because of immigrants, both legal and illegal. It has been going on for so long, that now the 2nd generation immigrants have kids that are of voting age: and they are not going to vote against their self interest (free stuff).

There is quite a bit of data on this. We are talking a 17 point change in voting habits from the 90s to today. There is no way you can overcome those numbers, particularly in elections that are decided by 3-4 points. Virginia is done. They may win a few more elections due to voter anger, but the state isn't producing conservative thought in their schools. Parents are not taking back their schools. Eventually, it all goes blue.

Look at the bright side. The age of the gentiles must come to a close, and Israel must take center stage again. The US has to diminish for that to happen.
