We have one. But he is being trashed for being moderate and normal.


Yes, his name is Ed Gillespie.

You would piss your pants if you walked through Culmore



I get food from from Peking Gourmet all the time. The neighborhood is pretty sketchy, however I am never bothered or in fear of anything.

There were no Republicans OR Democrats outside my polling place in Great Falls. Probably due to the rain. But nice try!

It's still way early, but so far things are favoring Northam. Let's hope it holds.

Um... Arlington absolutely matters. In fact, Arlington/Fairfax/DC suburbs generally make or break the election for Democrats in VA. Big turnout in that area = good for Dems


Other Arlington poster here, Arlington does matter in that sense, but it's not like it's a swing jurisdiction where the state will go the way Arlington goes. We can look to Arlington for signals about how the Dems are doing generally, but since there are so few Republicans here, it's harder to get a sense of how they're doing generally based on sampling from Arlington (although when their volunteers don't even show up at the polls, that is telling).


Arlington needs to get its own house in order before thinking a Dem governor will save it

Meh. Deplorables don't want to be called deplorables.


+1 It wasn't Northam who did that commercial. It was the Latino Victory Fund. And to me, it's the reverse Willie Horton ad. If the GOP can play to fears by threatening people with the specter of people of color committing crimes against white people, then the Democrats can very well raise the specter of a racist coming after non-white American children.


The kids were illegals That was the point of the commercial.

Much as I would like that to be true, polls aren't closed yet. Where are you getting this information?


Jorge Ramos, MSNBC and/or Mother Jones
