Does Deeds have more money or something? I am sure Mcdonnell is blasting ads as well. But maybe it's only in "real Virginia" since its more cost effective.
McDonnell is running ads in NOVA, as well, but not nearly as many as Deeds. Plus, Deeds is running ads that are attacking McDonnell, and that's what matters.
Candidates do tend to do that when they're far behind.
Agreed. The negative campaign worked well over the Summer, but hammering the same message for months after the peek just shows that there is no deeper substance to the candidate, especially when they are nearly 10 points behind.
