Just FTR, are we all completely resigned to the idea that NOVA is forever Democratic? It was once the only Republican friendly part of the state, and it's not like it's necessarily been THAT much more liberal than VA for a long time (ala Chicago in IL) and is finally turning the state because it's big enough (like Chicago did to IL). Pretty much pre-2004, it was SAFE GOP territory. I think Obama was a good fit for the area. I'm not saying it'll come back in the near future or anything, but the idea that it will eventually trend VA to become the next IL or NY is a bit out there, IMO.
