I agree -- it would have been great to be able to take one of these governor spots from the left. Truth be told, I am a bit concerned about this. We should have won at least one race.
Virginia elected Republicans when Reagan and Bush 41 were President.
It has been 32 years since the President influenced Virgina politics.
How did an 87% Job Approval Bush help defeat Warner in 2001? He didn't. Warner recieved over 52%.
I think we could have won one race, but not 'should' have. The Cali ballots are for more telling that the GOP clearly has lost a whole lot of people in the last year.
