Ed Gillespie. He's competent, respectable, and not a firebrand (despite what the Northam camp says). I hope he can pull off a great upset and get Virginia moving in the right direction.
"Great upset"? The polls show it as barely a Northam lead.
I meant that in reference to the entire campaign. Beating an opponent that at one point led you by double digits in an environment where the sitting president from your party has an approval rating in the upper 30s would be a great upset.
Reagan trailed Carter by doubles digits in parts of the campaign and by the end nobody would call 1980 an upset(maybe the margin was surprising but not the win).
Same with Clinton in 1992 and that too wasn't an upset
