It is our duty to vote for Dems to stay in power tomorrow in Virginia, but hell, I am not excited about Creigh Deeds,but my God, we all have to keep that &&$#%#% sexist pig out of office if we can.
LAST YEAR- IT WAS.. YES WE CAN!
Even if you have to hold your nose-Just do it! Do it!
PLEASE!

6. Here is a bit about him. |
|
http://www.deedsforvirginia.com/storyHe is not a polished speaker and had some trouble communicating his stand on a few issues. But I don't believe that he is an awful candidate.

7. Thanks - this paragraph alone would make me want to vote for him... |
|
"In addition to his work to cleanup the Kim-Stan landfill Superfund site, Creigh also wrote one of the most progressive laws to preserve open space and protect the environment. For his leadership and advocacy, he received the Leadership in Public Policy Award from The Nature Conservancy and the Preservation Alliance of Virginia named him Delegate of the Year."

Deeds has done some good things. He is not perfect, but the republican ticket is bad, bad news for Virginia.

3. Well, nobody in Jersey is jonesing for Corzine, but Dems there are fighting to save him |
|
These races are truly "lesser evil" in the hold up a cross and some garlic cloves meaning of the term.

5. A vote counts as a vote regardless of whether or not the person casting it was "excited" |
|
Unless somebody somewhere changed the rules.

Bumper sticker of the year: "Vote for the crook. It's important."
In VA, it's "Vote for the bore. It's important". And it is. McDonnell is far worse than a garden-variety sexist pig. He is a product of Pat Robertson's Regent University. :scared:

Have you seen the numbers? If he is within 12 points in the final results it will exceed reasonable expectations.
