For what it's worth, Rasmussen is out with new poll numbers on the Virginia governor's race.The latest Rasmussen Reports telephone survey in the state shows McDonnell ahead of Deeds 50% to 43%. Six percent (6%) of Virginia voters remain undecided...That's actually a bit of tightening since mid-September, from a 9-point McDonnell lead to a 7-point McDonnell lead. Hey, if Creigh can keep picking up 2 points every 2 weeks, he'll only lose by 4 points in just under 3 weeks from now. Pretty exciting, huh? Not.
McDonnell’s lead is roughly the same as two weeks ago when he was ahead of Deeds 51% to 42%. After closing to essentially a toss-up in mid-September, the previous survey found the contest back to where it was in early September, when the GOP hopeful held a nine-point advantage. In August, McDonnell was up by eight.
UPDATE: This video explains why we can't afford Bob McDonnell as our next governor. That is, unless you think George W. Bush economics are the answer to all that ails us...
