The Democratic National Committee is pumping some serious cash into the Virginia gubernatorial race, with $5 million set to go to Democratic nominee Creigh Deeds and the state Dems.
Deeds currently trails Republican Bob McDonnell in the polls, but is hoping to capitalize on McDonnell’s weaknesses — especially the hard-right manifesto that McDonnell wrote as a 34-year-old for Pat Robertson’s Regent University.
It should of course be noted that DNC chairman Tim Kaine’s current day job is being the current Governor of Virginia. So if the GOP were to win this one, he’d hardly look good at all, now would he?
