Don't know about the internals. I don't have the technology on me to read the pdf file.

I couldn't find that breakdown either, but margin of error was 3.5%. It does look like it will be all about turnout, but then it always is isn't it?

Preacher I have no idea what you are talking about. It looks like a close race to me and a big lead 10 days ago is ancient history at this point. Wouldn't you agree that if the latest polls are a true indication of what is going to happen on Tuesday it will be all about turnout?

Cooch loses by 7 pts. The Dems take the Lt Gov race by 10-12. Dems pick up 10 seats in the Assembly.

The first two are possible. That last statement....? Barring a miracle for Dems it won't happen. I would guess around 2 to 3 seats will flip.

Tom has proven repeatably that knows nothing of VA politics.

Who's going to be Hilary's running mate when McAuliffe loses? Hehe.

Well, he might know some stuff but there is absolutely no way Democrats will pick up 10 seats in the Assembly.

McAuliffe as VP?? 03-puke

He would have less than two years of executive experience in 2016.... I certainly hope that's not the larger reason he's running for governor of Virginia. Although, if a potential VP is the reason for his candidacy, it certainly would be a smart political decision (which Terry has made his living doing).

I think states should start enacting laws stating that you cannot run for governor unless you were born in that particular state.

RE: Cuccinelli closing on McAuliffe
I don't know about requiring someone to be born into a state they desire to be governor (plenty of people move after college to a new state to begin work, etc.) but a minimum of 5 or 7 years of residency should be required to be a governor, senator or congressman to get rid of carpetbaggers. You can't fully understand the politics, history and needs of the people you want to represent in a year or two...no matter how much you might read up or be tutored on them.

I could go for the residency requirement of 10 years. I definitely think they should ban anyone with dual residency.

I'm not sure 10 is the right number of years, but you are correct in that something needs to be done as far as the carpetbagging goes. The Clintonistas seem to be particularly adept at this over the last 10 years or so starting with Hillary.

President Obama Joins Virginia Gubernatorial Candidate Terry McAuliffe For Celebration Of The Affordable Care Act
WASHINGTON

Today, just over a month since the Administration launched HealthCare.gov, President Obama joined Virginia Gubernatorial Candidate Terry McAuliffe for a campaign event in Arlington, Virginia. McAuliffe, a former chairman of the Democratic National Committee, is a friend of the President’s
and a long-time supporter of his legislative priorities, including the Affordable Care Act.
Excerpts From Prepared Remarks of President Barack Obama Sunday, November 3, 2013
Hello Virginia! Are you all fired up or what! Let me hear you! Now,I know you’re fired up for me, but I’m talking about my good friend, Terry McAuliffe.
Let’s hear it for Terry!

I’mhere today because Terry has always had my back

alright maybe not in 2008 but ever since then.
He’s been a vocal supporter for our legislative priorities, especially the Affordable Care Act. Terry even wanted the public option and was just as disappointed as I was when that didn’t work out.

You all know that Republicans like Ken Cuccinelli are doing everything possible to stop the law. They are grossly misleading the public, saying I wasn’t honest with you all when I said if you like your healthcare plan, you can keep it. Can you believe that? Sure I said that but you all know what I meant! I meant most of you all! It’s not like I prefaced it with read my lip or anything. Look, no one is more upset than I am with how this rollout has gone, but Rome wasn’t built in one day.
Sure I would have liked to see more than six people sign up on the first day, but change is never supposed to be easy. It doesn’t happen overnight, heck, it doesn’t happen in five years either. Fortunately, I’m going to have a partner in Terry McAuliffe right here in Virginia when it comes to ObamaCare! Terry has made clear that he’s relying on the law through Medicaid expansion to pay for his platform and I’m glad to hear that.

And in fact, I’ve been reading that Terry’s stumbled onto something interest
ing …profiting on the death of others. You know the old saying there are two things that are certain: death and taxes.I’ve got to hand it to Terry, not even ObamaCare’s death panels were able to accomplish that. If there’s one thing Terry and I have in common, it’s a lifelong love of big -government policies.



But that’s not the only thing we have in common. Terry and I are both authors. When Terry started writing his memoir, he called me for advice. He had read Dreams of My Father and The Audacity of Hope
, and wanted to get my two cents. My advice to him was simple: speak from the heart, let people get a sense of who the real Terry McAuliffe is, and most of all, don’t hold anything back.

I was pleased when I saw that Terry took my advice. Before we took the stage today, Terry told me he knew exactly what I meant when said ―if you’ve got a business, you didn’t build that.‖ He’s got that car company down in Mississippi and they’re not building cars and that pellet company down in Franklin that doesn’t make any pellets. Nobody’s working harder than Terry McAuliffe to prove that people in business d
idn’t build anything !

Ah come on Terry, you know I love you! Hillary may be likeable enough, but I just love Terry McAuliffe no matter what he told Jon Stewart. All of you Democrats here in Northern Virginia need to make sure you vote, because there’s a lot of folks out therein the rest of Virginia still clinging to their guns and religion and those folks are going to vote.

You know, unlike my last opponent, Terry McAuliffe can actually prove he’s created 100,000 jobs…oh wait…he can’t prove it…I mean, unlike my last opponent, everyone’s giving Terry McAuliffe a pass on his claim to have created 100,000 jobs. And I also want to give a big shout out to The Washington Post
, after relentlessly tormenting my opponent about releasing his tax returns last year they’ve done Terry McAuliffe quite the favor by not demanding the same of him.

Tomorrow, some of you will hear from Vice President Biden… Uncle Joe as we like to call him in the West Wing. With any luck, he’ll talk about binders…binders full of Chinese investors…binders full of Chinese investors that my friend Terry and his company successfully duped for millions. Way to go man…that’s quite an economic feat as opposed to owing them trillions. And finally, I want to clear one thing up and
let everyone know that I’m not the least bit concerned about the DHS and SEC investigations that involve Terry McAuliffe. From my staff in the White House, to the folks in the Vice President’s office, to the folks at DHS – my administration has gone above and beyond to help McAuliffe’s GreenTech and I’m not about to let a couple federal probes by my own administration dampen my support for
Terry. If there’s a problem, I’m sure we’ll hear about it after Election Day, but for now, it’s time to focus on more important stuff. Virginians should always know, they can count on Terry McAuliffe! Whether
its 3 AM or some other time, he’ll likely be playing cards with my friend Bill enjoying each other’s company in doses

I was involved in a Sheriff's race about 10 years ago. I counted signs, only in people's yards, and my candidate was the clear winner in signage. I learned a valuable lesson in that race. We had the enthusiasm, we had the dedicated volunteers, we had people that wanted to put stickers on their cars and signs in their yards. When we had pig pickings or hot dog suppers for him the crowds were large. 0ur opponent had poor crowds at his rallies, many fewer signs in yards and generally lukewarm support. Mo was on our side and we were going to roll to victory.

We lost by about 7 percent. What did I learn? Signs and bumper stickers don't mean ****. Enthusiastic supporter votes don't count any more than unenthusiastic supporters votes. I'm not saying that that will be the outcome in Va., just that signage is more an indication of intensity of support not quantity.

Total agreement, dawg... in fact, this last Presidential election was much the same way. You had all these people showing all the signs for Romney or Johnson in their yards. And what happened? Those people didn't show up to vote.

RE: Cuccinelli closing on McAuliffe
According to Breitbart, they're reporting there was one fo the Sirius talk channels that said :

Quote:Kenney said to look to Fairfax County on election night, saying that if McAuliffe gets 55% of the vote or less there in the early voting, it could be a good night for Cuccinelli.

I'd say that with Fairfax being a strong Dem stronghold, I don't think that'd happen, but it also said if participation is 35% or less, it goes to Cuccinelli, more than that, it goes to "GreenTech" McAuliffe
