Virginia

29 days until votes are counted in Virginia, Democrat Barack Obama is
ahead 53% to 43%, according to this SurveyUSA poll conducted exclusively
for WDBJ-TV in Roanoke, WJLA-TV in Washington DC, WTVR-TV in Richmond,
and WJHL-TV in the Tri-Cities. In 4 tracking polls conducted since the
Republican Convention, McCain has gone from up by 2 to down by 10.

There is movement among men, where immediately after the GOP convention,
McCain led by 10, and where today Obama leads by 11.
There is movement among whites, where McCain’s once 22-point lead is
today reduced to single digits.
There is movement among the well-to-do, where today for the first time
Obama leads.
There is movement among pro-choice voters, where Obama’s lead has
doubled since August.

McCain no longer leads in any region of the state. In Northeastern VA,
which includes the DC suburbs, Obama leads by 24 points. In Central
Virginia, home of the Confederate White House, the Museum of the
Confederacy and Appomattox, Obama today leads by 8. In Southeastern
Virginia, Obama leads by 11. In the Shenandoah, where John McCain led by
24 points one month ago, Obama and McCain today tie.

Gosh, no wonder Herring wants to desert Virginia for one of the
Carolinas...where he can fly his confederate flag in safety.

But it might not be *North* Carolina, because there is a chance that
state might turn blue, too.

Where's Sarah Palin? Virginia needs a wink and a shout-out.
Evidently no one is promoting his increased taxes proposals.
