-------------------------

This seems to show a lot of party interest in this race and state. It is indicitive of the important role VA will play in the Dem party in the years to come. With Warner possibly unseating a popular senator or maybe even running for president - it can only be helped by maintaining strong party loyalty within the state.

Thoughts?

2. Dont know about the polls

However, after hearing him speak today and hearing the DNC commitment to the south and in particular, VA - I think Kilgore will really have to pull some magic to beat him. Anything is possible - but I think the Democrat mood in teh state is optimistic.

Stay tuned and get involved if you can!
