I strongly doubt that there is any substantive difference.

No, I'd bet Deeds is more conservative.

Only if you actually care about gun control.

From what I can know about Deeds, he's rather "SOUTHRON MODERATE!"... while McAuliffe is all DLC... I guess it all depends on whether you care about gays and guns or business-friendliness.

Hard to say. McAuliffe probably doesn't have any ideology, which in theory is a good thing but really means he'd just be corrupt and useless as Governor, beholden to his donors. Nor is Deeds the social conservative/economic leftist that his region would suggest.

Moran is clearly the most liberal and possibly the most leftist candidate, however.

Certainly the most right-wing economically.

Deeds is tight with NARAL. He's not some Southern populist type.

He's also tight with the NRA... I'm not saying he's hard right socially... but he does have a tint of populism.

Thought he was a pro-life Democrat? I don't really care either way, I'm just curious.

Deeds is a pretty solid Democrat except he's extremely anti-gun control and pro-"law and order". Why? This is what his Senate district looks like (Deeds is from Bath County):

Deeds has an amazing record.
