VA Gov Candidates Debate
Here is my write-up of the Virginia gubernatorial debate yesterday, moderated by "Meet the Press" host David Gregory:
McLEAN, Va. -- In the second of four formal debates, the candidates for governor of Virginia argued over the same issues that the most recent gubernatorial races centered on -- jobs and transportation. While there was plenty of finger pointing at the Fairfax County Chamber of Commerce-sponsored debate, one Democratic state legislator told RealClearPolitics that it was the most substantive debate he had seen in his many years in Virginia politics.To open the event, Bob McDonnell, the Republican nominee, said he was glad to finally be on home turf after the first debate was held in Creigh Deeds's home county. McDonnell spent most of his childhood in Northern Virginia, including here in Fairfax County, though Deeds later criticized him for claiming many parts of the state as his home.
