Because he lost by 2.5 nationally. He lost VA by 4. The military population is what likely did him in there.

He lost VA by 8 points, though it was a pretty identical margin of defeat from Gore's VA loss in 2000 so the state trended D a bit in 2004 and that trend accelerated when it was contested by Obama in 2008.
