Dafydd ab Hugh of Big Lizards turns his spotlight on Creigh Deeds' imploding campaign for governor of Virginia.
Deeds has run a poor campaign, notably harping on the 20-year-old college thesis of his opponent, Republican Bob McDonnell (perhaps Deeds shouldn't have to take all the blame for that, since the Washington Post - no doubt trying to be helpful - mentioned the thesis scores of times; Deeds, naturally enough for a Democrat, figured if the Post thought it was such a big deal, then everybody else must, too. Hey, not outside of Northern Virginia, pal!)
As the linked post indicates, the Democrats are already attempting to attribute Deeds' coming loss to his insufficient ardor for Obamunism. Dafydd underscores the nonsense of this theory: "So that's why they're voting for the Republican, Robert McDonnell. Hey, makes sense to me!"
