Today Jim Gilmore barely got the Republican nomination for the open senate seat. 65 votes! Steadily I think Virginia is going to become more like us over here in Maryland. And Mark Warner has his first campaign ad up:
Obama will win Virginia on Warner’s coattails.
I’ve met Mark Warner before- he is a genuine, good guy. I was some peon college student and he actually took the time during a busy event to have a sideline chat with me about my future. Great guy, need more like him in Washington.
Mark Warner and Obama need to campaign together in Virginia. Warner is nearly a shoe-in for the Senate, and if Obama can win here, it will be nearly impossible for McCain to win the White House.
