If the VA democrats had a stronger Lt. Gov and Att General, they would take this one big time. I very much dislike Early, but I will vote for him as I am a pro gun fiscal conservative. His strong religious convictions, make him one to want to convert the masses, and this will indeed be a pulpit for him.
Since the Democratic ticket also has Tim Kaine (The current mayor of Richmond, one of the biggest shitholes in the state) and Donald McKeachin (A model ambulance chaser), I'm not too worried. Both these guys are very Socialist, and see government as the solution to all problems. (They see corporations as problems as well)
Once these two crackpots hit the airwaves, any ground taken by Warner will be lost.
Mark Warner has been pasted by this latest correction in the market as he is very tech heavy. Some of his companies have apparently gone under as of late. I don't think he can really get away with calling himself a "Succesful job creator" anymore.
