Virginia: McDonnell Takes 9 Point Lead Over Deeds
Virginia is looking good for Republicans right now. The Washington Post, which has been actively campaigning for Deeds, has been forced to report the following:
“Republican Robert F. McDonnell has taken a commanding lead over R. Creigh Deeds in the race for governor of Virginia, as momentum the Democrat had built with an attack on his opponent’s conservative social views has dissipated, according to a new Washington Post poll.”
“McDonnell leads 53 to 44 percent among likely voters, expanding on the four-point lead he held in mid-September. Deeds’s advantage with female voters has all but disappeared and McDonnell has grown his already wide margin among independents.”
I wonder if McDonnell’s lead has anything to do with his awesome campaign ads….
