7. McDonnell leads only because it's too early for voters in an off year - valuable post

They need to find this out too, and they will. The off years build at the end in VA.

There's contribution problems from the A.G. election McDonnell "won" in 2005 that will come
out too. Conservative Citizen Council donations, donations from people using illegal labor
while he opposed immigration ... but he was elected Attorney General so no investigation ensued.

Virginia has virtually no regulations on campaign donations. Thus, follow the biggest donors,
donations. They're stacked in Deeds' (D) favor, like rally in his favor. Watch as the press
unfurls this, the CCC ties, the guest worker-contractor ties and, oh, right to life. He'll be
out to lunch with most of Northern Virginia (where he lost to Deeds in the A.G. race only polling
33% or so) and his crappy record will motivate both black and women citizens to get out to vote.

It will be a precise and thorough tear down.
