But much of Northern Virginia is made up of government workers. Some of these might be military. What’s your sense as to the type of voters, pro-Obama or pro-Romney?

There are a lot of government workers in Northern Virginia, but not as many as you might imagine. Fairfax County is the most heavily impacted and it's just 1 out of 7 employed people who work for the government.

Remember, Congress long ago learned how to keep the jobs at home, in their districts.

Basically conservative but they like big Government because that's where their paycheck comes from. That's why Virginia is so close. If Romney wins their positions might be eliminated. And I say, good!
