RICHMOND — Republican Donald Trump, never short on campaign shockers, pulled one off Saturday simply by setting foot in Virginia.
Trump’s rally in Virginia Beach, part of a renewed push here that included a $2 million television ad buy, flabbergasted political analysts and GOP strategists who’ve considered the swing state off the table for months.
Trailing Democrat Hillary Clinton by double digits in the latest Virginia polls, Trump will dispatch key surrogates — his children — for series of visits to Northern Virginia this week. His campaign said Trump and runningmate Mike Pence will return to the state “a lot” before Election Day....

It’s called internal polling.
I think it would be a great omen to win in Tim Kaine country. POWER ON and lets see the odds in Las Vegas where people gamble on these things. I think Trump will take Virginia......
I think they do know something.
Trump flabbergasting the GOPe works for me.
GO TRUMP GO~!
buy a ton of ads now, too!!!! pleez?
Trump should trust his own polling only a little, and he should not trust anyone else's polling at all. This election is uncharted territory, and no one knows what is really going to happen in 15 days.
What? Like the Mike Murphy types who ran the Jeb! campaign into the ground? Those experts!
Trump’s going for a blowout, not for a contestable edge of your seat win.
Translation...the Compost,always concerned about Trump’s success,wants him to go elsewhere.Perhaps to Texas where,they report,Hillary has tied it up.Perhaps to Alabama where,they report,Hillary’s up by 1....or perhaps to Massachusetts where,the Compost reports,Trump is surprising everyone by being within a point.
Yep - it must be because Trump is “dupid”. /s
So - all you so-call “GOP strategists” why didn’t your strategy for beating Trump in the primaries, and why didn’t all your strategies for easily beating BO in 2012 come to fruition?
And most curious of all, how do you “GOP strategists” still earn a paycheck - when most everything you do seems to favor Democrats - hmmm?
“so-called”
All of the FBI agents are going to vote for him.
I hope he has enough money for everything he needs to do.
His manager sent emails this morning saying they need about 300m to do what the need to do. So I donated again. But some of us are tapped out now.
I dont know how much of that they already have.
These commercials cost a fortune!!! geez.
Remember these same people were shocked that the GOP almost won the Senate seat there in 2014 and had they put money into the campaign would have won it.
However, the crap polls in the state may be even worse than the slanted ones elsewhere. They keep citing this CN Univ. poll that was 7 points off in favor of the democrats in 2014. 7 points. And that was right before election day, its was even worse in the months beforehand.
Ha...I was thinking that the other day. A lot of people in FBI have to be very angry
understood.
do NOT hurt yourself financially.
(altho certainly the economy will continue to slide down down DOWN if HilLIARy gets in, so most all of us will suffer financially then)
you can only do so much. do it, with thanks we have this opportunity. and then let whatever happens, occur. you can help further by asking all your friends to vote for Mr Trump...we are not helpless even at this late hour....
best, and thanks for helping DT. I figure this is the last election I will live to see, that will matter. If DT wins, he can get USA back at least pointed in a good direction again. If HilLIARy wins, it is all over for America anyway
