If that many people moved to VA for defense jobs during the 2000's, it would have gained a district in 2010.  It didn't, so there has to be a substantial component of people who lived there prior to 2000 changing their minds.  Keep in mind that 2000 and 2004 were not narrow R wins.  The state was not considered competitive for anything federal until George Allen collapsed 10 feet from the finish line in 2006.
