Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton is the top United States presidential contender in Virginia, according to a poll by SurveyUSA released by WDBJ-TV. At least 50 per cent of respondents in the Old Dominion State would vote for the New York senator in head-to-head contests against three Republicans.
Rodham Clinton leads former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani by six points, actor and former Tennessee senator Fred Thompson by seven points, and former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney by 15 points.

How reliable is Survey USA?
Government workers in the East and California refugees in the west is turning the electoral college into a serious problem for Republicans.
It’s a fairly good firm. Not the best, but solid enough.
Geez it seems like every state is turning blue...Colorado, Nevada, Ohio, Virginia...this is not good.
There has been a serious migration from the north into VA. NOVA is like Massachusetts.
I have trouble believing that Hillary would get anything near 50% in VA with such high disapproval ratings.
At this early point in the campaign I will take those odds
“geez....it seems like every state is turning blue...”
more than 50% of the electorate (after election fraud) will vote for hillary!. we will have two socialists for the price of one in the whitehouse, again. and the “people” will cheer, and rejoice that she is elected. (heaven help us)
Too many people in the US are fat, lazy and incapable of doing anything for themselves. Too many others will not hold the fat, lazy and incompetents accountable for their failings and expect us all to dig down deep and pay for them.
The latest Rasmussen Reports telephone survey of Virginia voters finds Rudy Giuliani with a three-percentage point lead over Hillary Clinton in the race for the state’s Electoral Votes. John McCain and Fred Thompson each have a single point advantage over Clinton while Mike Huckabee trails the former First Lady by nine.
Clinton’s support ranges from 43% to 48% when matched against the various Republican hopefuls. Nationally, against all of the top five Republicans, Clinton’s support remains in the 46% to 49% range.
Seriously doubt she's picked up 7% in a week.
Maybe this will make everyone feel a bit better... another poll.

The latest Rasmussen Reports telephone survey of Virginia voters finds Rudy Giuliani with a three-percentage point lead over Hillary Clinton in the race for the state’s Electoral Votes. John McCain and Fred Thompson each have a single point advantage over Clinton while Mike Huckabee trails the former First Lady by nine.
Clinton’s support ranges from 43% to 48% when matched against the various Republican hopefuls. Nationally, against all of the top five Republicans, Clinton’s support remains in the 46% to 49% range.
In Virginia, Clinton leads all Republicans among women but trails all among men.
No Democratic Presidential candidate has won the state of Virginia since 1964, so Clinton’s competitiveness is bullish for her party. However, she has lost a bit of ground against each Republican candidate compared to last month’s survey. In September, Clinton had a 3-point lead over Giuliani in the state that produced four of our nation’s first five Presidents.
I seriously doubt that Virginia woul delect Obama President (I expect Hillary to be toast long before next November).

Who are they polling?
“In Virginia, Clinton leads all Republicans among women but trails all among men.”
If Republicans ran a woman, I don’t see the guys here at FR switching over to vote for the Democrat because he is a man.
The Republicans lack a winning message that sticks with people right now. Bush and company had Iraq go out of control and lost a lot of clout with the US voters. They exercised poor fiscal restraint and they had no clue on how to fight back when the democrats played their dirty pool. We can complain about RINOs but the fact is conservatives are not the majority in this country. They are a good bloc but without attracting the moderates they simply do not win elections on a national scale.
Actually the latest Survey USA has McCain up by 10, Giuliani up by a couple.
