"Virginia, hello, this is Sarah Palin calling to urge you to vote to share our principles..."
NOTE: You can hear a sound clip of the Robo-call below.



RICHMOND, Virginia (CNN) – Sarah Palin isn’t staying out of the Virginia governor’s race after all.

Less than 48 hours before voters head to the polls to elect a new governor, several Virginians reported receiving robocalls on Sunday from the 2008 GOP vice presidential nominee, urging them to “vote your values” on Tuesday.

But the recording makes no mention of the Bob McDonnell, the Republican gubernatorial candidate who has been reluctant to embrace Palin during the governor’s race, out of fear that she might alienate some of the independent voters who have helped him climb to a healthy lead in the polls over Democrat Creigh Deeds.

“Virginia, hello, this is Sarah Palin calling to urge you to go to the polls Tuesday and vote to share our principles,” the former Alaska governor says in the call, which was provided to CNN by one Democrat who recorded it. “The eyes of America will be on Virginia and make no mistake about it, every vote counts. So don’t take anything for granted, vote your values on Tuesday, and urge your friends and family to vote, too.”

Maybe this will encourage Democrats to get out and vote against McDonnell.

5. Goods
That should be worth a point or two being pushed back towards Deeds.

(Deeds is going to lose though, so let me go ahead and apologize in advance for Virginia fucking up once again).

7. It's embarrassing, isn't it?
Someone wrote a letter to the editor of a local paper asking if people had forgotten Gilmore already.

13. Yeah, after Gilmore and going blue for Obama
It's pretty disapointing. That being said, I don't think Deeds ran a very good campaign. Deeds hasnt' helped himself much since the debate where he looked like a dumbass on his question regarding taxation. The fact that McD had a war chest bigger by about four million didn't help much either.

15. I think Deeds just is who he is
and frankly I like that about him, but it's not unusual for voters to go for the "slick" candidate.

9. What terrifies me is the idea of AG Ken Cuccinelli. That is one serious whack job.

11. Mixed message there, Mrs. Palin
Should I vote your principles or my values? Because there's a big difference.
