So whats going on in Virginia?

[Oregone]

Where is this "Commie-country" everyone was talking about? This one looks like itll be a close one if Obama pulls it out. Or...too early to count yet? 40% in and he is down 8.5 points.

1. No worries.

I thought we'd win it. But, maybe not. We will win anyway. We are not dependent on VA. Let's see what happens there.

4. Being not-dependent isn't the point

:)

Ill be patient. Its just not looking good. The Virginia I lived in though would never of been close, so thats progress.

10. NoVA not in yet

Fairfax County is just reporting 11%, Loudoun is at 14%, and Arlington has no return whatsoever.

5. The polls were wrong

Virginia is still largely fundyville, and Northern Virginia hasn't carried the day as predicted.

8. No, northern VA definitly isn't...

"Commie-Land". :) I wish, eh? Strange...he was up by 10 points at one point I thought in the polls.

15. That's what was said.

and, having family there and spent time throughout the state, I reckoned the polls were WAY off.

Lots of military and fundies, plus more Republican government workers in the North than people gave credit for.

Think Washington State without Seattle and Bellingham.

6. no results from the north.

7. would everyone stop it? Richmond, Norfolk, Blacksburg, NOVA not in yet! nt

[Oregone]

11. I understand that

And Ill be patient...just with 45% in, he's going to have to win BIG. Hopefully that happens. Its possible, yes.

[Stinky The Clown]

9. None - NONE - of the blue areas are in yet

12. NoVa could make the whole difference

There are a lot of us bluesters up here in The People's Republic of Northern Virginia.

[Stump]

13. I don't think NOVA can pull this one out...

Fundys and racists still run deep in the heart of VA...trust me, I know...

[Oregone]

17. I know too

I went to college there. Very backwards. Guess we will see.

14. How can VA go for Obama when they shut all the machines down earlier? Vote suppression

equates to election theft and it was rampant in VA today.

16. What's going on in Texas?

The polls are closed. The exit polls didn't tell them it was a lock for McCain?
