yes nova has been trending (i hate that term) democrat.
but keep in mind who is the republican nominee. not george w.bush. john mccain. it seems to me he is very acceptable to many suburbanites.
he wont win nova, but i think he can slow the bleeding.
True, and can Obama stop the bleeding in ever Republican growing Southside?
depends on what you mean by southside?
i expect any democrat to do well in the cities of martinsville, south boston and danville.
the rural (white areas) of southside, mccain should do very well. east of say halifax county, id definitely expect obama to perform better than clinton.
