President Obama barnstormed five cities across Virginia this weekend, stepping up his attacks on Republican Mitt Romney … Romney sent an army of surrogates into Virginia to counter the president’s fast-paced, two-day swing.
The focus on Virginia’s cities, suburbs, mountains and military bases captures dramatically how varied and unpredictable the state is despite the president’s historic victory here in 2008. Both candidates see great opportunity in the political geography of the Old Dominion, and neither is certain of winning it.
