1. Um, since it went Repuke in the last 2 elections, but Bill Clinton won it in

1992 and 1996, so that means it was 50/50, I guess that DOESN'T make it a swing state?

2. WV has routinely been called a swing state in recent elections, but in presidentials ...

This would be the first election in a VERY long time that Virginia would be considered a swing state (although if Mark Warner is on the ticket, it might not be a swing state at all, but SOLID BLUE!)

Personally, I'd much rather see a very strong charismatic woman who never supported the Iraq War Resolution on the ticket, to MAXIMIZE Obama's overall chances nationally.
