Seven days until total domination

In a week, Election 2011 will be over.
Will Republicans win the Senate to go along with their majority in the House of Delegates and the Executive Branch?
Will Democrats spend the winter moaning and whining?
Will the talk end that Virginia has a chance of going to President Obama again in 2012?
I know, people like President Obama.
They just don't like his friends.
or his policies.
or what's happened since he took office.
Other than that, he's in a good shape.

West Virginia wrap-up

The next big election happens Tuesday in West Virginia - to fill the year-plus left in the governor's term.
Since Washington, D.C. includes some West Virginia counties in its TV market, we got to see an ad this week.
A Republican win would be great, but keeping the Democrats spending money and running away from President Obama is just as good.

The race is on

David Karaffa, the Augusta Conservative, is running for a spot on the Augusta County Board of Supervisors.
He's planning on telling the story of his run through his blog.
It's a long way, and probably a lot of posts, until November 8.
