This one is interesting. Warner's just seen the ComPost give him another 10-point lead in the polls, and now he puts in more money... he knows it's going to be much, much closer than that.
Excerpts: Each [Earley and Warner] is promising dozens of initiatives totaling more than $4 billion in all types of spending, borrowing or forgone revenue through tax breaks over four years. And on several pledges that are potentially the most expensive -- such as shrinking class sizes or revamping a chronically troubled mental health system -- neither campaign will hazard a guess at the price tag.

Perhaps we have different signs, but up here around NoVa Earley's signs are more professional looking, easier to read (candidate and office), and IMHO more patriotic.
Of course, I'm talking mostly about roadside signs. I have only seen ONE Warner sign in a yard in all my surrounding neighborhoods. By contrast, I've seen 8-9 Earley yard signs. And I live in a very split (almost 50/50) voting area.
