Creigh Deeds, should have never made it out of the starting gate on primary day. He should not have been a serious contender.
Both Public Policy Polling and SurveyUSA are indicating that McDonnell and gang are going to sweep Virginia, and Lowell Field is predicting a 5 seat pick-up in the House of Delegates for Republicans.
Barack Obama is campaigning for conservative Democrat Creigh Deeds in a race that’s not about actually moving Virginia forward, but keeping within the good graces of Virginia’s Democratic party.
Deeds was a compromise “safe” selection in the Democratic primary; and now people aren’t even sure why the Democrat in the race is. It sucks, and it could have been prevented.
I believe Creigh Deeds has shown that he’s not interested in progressive causes, and because of this; I’m no longer interested in helping him win this election.
On this issue, the paper states that Deeds is, “preferable to Mr. McDonnell’s silver-tongued embrace of ideas that would mire Virginia in a traffic-clogged, backward-looking past.”
Successful and popular former Governor of Virginia, now Senator from Virginia, Mark Warner, gives his full endorsement of Creigh Deeds as the next Governor of Virginia.
The Deeds campaign released a targeted piece of literature a while back, and since it seemed like a good contrast piece, I thought I’d post it
In the editorial, Deeds drives home the point that transportation problems cannot be solved without raising new revenue, and raising that revenue may very well include new taxes.
