good to know that you cannot buy an election in Virginia.

for Obama/Clinton supporters......big loss which shows that people are fed up with Obama's reckless and ineffective spending which will put our children and grandchildren under the Chinese thumb.....

maybe money can't buy an election

Nice contrast to the Senate race in Minn. A guy won and one lost, he at least gets it.

Liberals are funny. They get so huffy puffy when people trash Obama. Now they know what Republicans felt like when they (and the media) trashed Bush all these years.

Hypocrites!!!!!!!

Good, only Deeds has a chance to win. and I hope he does.

Good riddance to more Clinton rubbish.

Interesting, I just found out that the right wing nuts copy people's names and then make stupid comments using other people's names. Is it immaturity? Yes. LOL. Some day the grown ups will take the republican party back and we will take them seriously again. But Rush Limbaugh? Sarah Palin? Dick Cheney? Newt Gingrich? As long as they are out front, I'm a democrat. Joe Scarborough is at least trying to have a conversation. He's the only republican I actually know of who is speaking any sense – other than Colin Powel, Dick Lugar, Brent Scowcroft, you know, the adults.

liberals are on their way out....bye bye...

Personally, I like Terry McAuliffe, but no democrat is going to win in Virginia.

As a Va. conservative, I was happy to see Deeds win today for one reason....he is an ACTUAL Virginian. McAuliffe and all of his "out of state" money from Clinton couldn't even get him the nomination. He had the field blown in away in contributions but got beat by Deeds almost 2 to 1. I love it. Congratulations Deeds. Keep these out of state hacks out of our beloved Virginia politics!

Good. McAuliffe is a total tool. He was a terrible DNC chair. Why reward incompetence with the governor's mansion?

i knew that virginians had too much class to elected the dirtiest of the clinton gang! way to go virginia – maybe the rest of the country will follow your lead and look at the character of the people we vote for – afterall, they willl do in public office what they do in their private lives and mcawful was the sleaziest of the bunch!

I see VA going back to its republican roots. The stench of Obama is too great. One and done for Oblama.

This is the right thing to do as a democrate and I do respect McAuliffe for showing his respect to the party. Thanks

Great a good old boy looses!!!

Perhaps there's hope after all !!!

A great day for Virginia!

people see that dems is short for demons and with Obama the anti-christ in office, people are seeing through the smoke and they are not happy.

Who is Deeds? Like Mr. Deeds aka Adam Sandler? Ha ha ha ha Democrats are such a joke!

This is great for the Dems. My nderstanding is the GOP did want want Deeds to win, they favored McAuliffe. Deeds has them worried.

HA! McAuliffe is the worst of the worst partisans. He's been a venomous hate-mongerer. No self respecting Democrat with a sense of decency could have voted for such a wretch.

My faith in humanity has been renewed!

Tsk Tsk....too bad.

Awh, Shucks!

blue state!

I would like to take this moment to say "I told you so."

Deeds will go down again in November. Virginia's had enough of that Hope and Change crap.

best news i've heard since before the election in November.

Good choice virginia Terry (the wind bag)McAuliffe doesn't deserve to be your governor.

There is a god. And no you CNN/Obamots, it is not your lord and savior Barack Hussien Obama.

this has to be the weirdest thing................
