Governor-Elect Tim Kaine

When Governor Warner and Governor-Elect Tim Kaine came on stage last night, we let out a collective sign of relief. Then came the jubilation. All our hard work paid off. Phones rang and emails were sent not only across Virginia but across the states.

The Pundits put so much emphasis on the outcome of this Gubernetorial race -- that it would be a predictor of how people felt about national politics, and thus, the races for Senators in other states next year.

Most of us feel the outcome is largely the reflection of the voters' feelings toward State government and how the campaign was conducted.
However, time will tell.

The thing of which we are certain is that Democrats still have the Governorship and picked up House Seats in Virginia. Creigh Deeds' race is still too close to call. Leslie Byrne ran an incredible race and lost by only 2 percent.

Now we look forward to helping Tim and to getting Mark Warner elected President.
