it's a question of turnout and margin's in those area's vs. mccains ability to motivate his voter's through the middle of the state.

i doubt many on mccain's staff are looking the state, rolling their eyes, and saying "puhleez!"

He can absolutely bank on Northern VA, but the southeast corner of the state is no sure thing, by any means. I was born in raised in Hampton...so I know that area well. He can count on carrying Richmond...that's for certain. I mean good Lord...that city didn't get enough of Wilder as Gov., so they decided to elect him as the city Mayor
