1. Un-rec'ed for campaigning for McDonnell.

2. Wrong. But why vote for Deeds if I'm going to get McDonnell positions?
This is my new voting policy across the board. I am strictly voting for pols who represent ME. I am no longer voting for people just because they won a primary. Well, if the positions were close and if the winner had a Democratic viewpoint, I would still vote for them if they bested my first choice. Deeds isn't making that cut.

5. Because if you think Deeds and McDonnell are similar you are tragically wrong.
Deeds is no Paul Wellstone but he is much better than the alternative in this case.

Good Wash. Post article on their differences: http://fwd4.me/18L

3. Please stop!
We need to try and defeat McDonnell. He is a right wing wacko.

7. I do have my own policy for the future
and I will ONLY vote for Dems I feel good about. But, I really am not trying to undermine the Dem candidate and I understand that all may not feel as I do.

8. That's fine, except your "policy" is not pragmatic. Not voting for Deeds is the
same as lending support for McDonnell. McDonnell doesn't believe you should be able to have a job or vote. Please think long and hard about this.
