Will you all SHUT UP about that? Not ONE vote that matters hinged on that this year; it's not even on the RADAR in things people are concerned about.

I don't know who the hell you think you are. No, I am not going to shut up.

I've lived in the state of Virginia for almost 12 years now, and I've seen the gradual progression of the change that has been taking place over the last several years from used to be Republican lock to what is now almost a tossup.

I'm telling you right now, if the state of Virginia has several more years of the immigration levels that we've had for the last several years, we are going to end up becoming permanently Democrat. If you don't like hearing that, that's too darn bad, but it's the truth. I hope the Republicans will listen before it's too late.

Virginia used to be a "Republican lock" 12 years ago? I don't think so. It just started trending GOP a few years back.

I'm not even from VA and the immigration is obviously causing a change. Like it is going to all across this country as planned.

Dumb, dumb, dumb.

Incorrect. The seat in question now was held by Chuck Robb for 12 years prior to Allen capturing it.

Agree with you on the immigration issue. The Republicans failed to tap into an undercurrent among potential voters against illegal immigration. There is a growing wake of anger in American re illegal immigration- I see it among neighbors, friends, etc daily. As always, Republicans have difficulty 'marketing' their position or standing firm when criticized. They needed to be strong on this and other conservative issues without wavering. Wavering is what loses voter alliance.

Stand your ground. I agree with your analysis.
