Too Progressive

Capital intensive blogging for a more progressive America since 2006

Another reason I will not vote for Deeds

He’s apparently pig headed and it’s going to cost him the election. Via WaPo:

Senior administration officials have expressed frustration with how Democrat R. Creigh Deeds has handled his campaign for governor, refusing early offers of strategic advice and failing to reach out to several key constituencies that helped Obama win Virginia in 2008, they say.

A second administration official, who also spoke on condition of anonymity, said: “Obama, Kaine and others had drawn a road map to victory in Virginia. Deeds chose another path.”

    I would like to see a more active outreach effort to crossover voters who are in groups like the VCDL, Sons of Confederate Veterans and the United Daughters of the Confederacy.

    WaPo pundits are hardly experts on winning elections in Virginia, however.

    I will still support Creigh Deeds because he has a long record of standing up for the Virginia working Man. We can trust Creigh Deeds to stand with the citizens and always place our best interests FIRST.

    Mr. McDonnell will do the bidding of the multinational conglomerates. With McDonnell, you get more outsourcing and more jobs shipped from Virginia over to China.
