Virginia, being a red state, has seen moderate candidates like Mark Warner - like Harris Miller sort of appears to be, in the early stages - see some success. James Webb is almost carrying that trend even further - as a former Republican administration official, as a person with a strong military background. It's something that has worked for Democrats so far - but he has to figure out a way to convince Democratic voters that he can be the one who gets the job done.  -   Matt Smyth     Quotes
