Clinton ahead in VA but trailing in PA and MI lol? Anyway, VA will definitely be the toughest state for the GOP in 2016.

Michigan polls are known to be crap, it's common knowledge to anyone who pays attention. Just because Republicans are leading in a poll doesn't mean it is correct.

Va continues to be the bright spot for Democrats in 2016.  I'm so proud of my state.

Michigan won't go Republican before Virginia. Not in 2016, at least. Virginia will be close, but if Virginia leans Democratic prior to the election, Clinton will be in good shape.

Indeed, the MI polling industry is a total joke. The Democrat is not losing Michigan if they're winning Virginia ...

It wouldn't be all that surprising if Clinton won VA and lost PA. They only voted about 1 point apart last time and the VA trend is toward the Democrats.

Also, for whatever reason Michigan pollsters are pretty much universally terrible and should be ignored. I have no idea why this is, but it happens every election cycle.

You should be sooooo proud of your bag man governor.


PA might be the bright spot for the GOP. Toomey will win big and the Dem AG is heading to prison

Do you honestly believe that Dems have pulled out of Pa; CO;NV or FL senate races and those races are critical for the 272 blue wall. Remember Corbett was down by 20 and managed to make a race out of it.

Heh, accusing McAuliffe of corruption is a little weak considering the guy he replaced.

While I dislike McAuliffe, he's better than McDonnell. He's also better than Cuccinelli in my eyes.  Anything, the thing with Virginia politics is that governors can only serve a single term at a time, which means we won't be stuck with him for long. 

The Democrats have a pretty strong bench in Virginia.  Either Herring or Northam would be strong candidates.  They would probably beat Cuccinelli or Gillespie.  Bolling would be a good GOP candidate, but he's unlikely to make it through a primary.

Dubya; just like Jeb had a 4 pt lead going into election day in MI; and tied with Kerry in Pa; & we knew how that turned out.
