I have no idea why Creigh Deeds is even paying his staff. His bandwagon jumping has happened again and his "ME TOO" campaign is rolling.
There's an issue that hasn't gotten much play in the Western half of state that involves a former prisoner named Arthur Whitfield. He was wrongly convicted of a crime and spent decades in prison. When his innocence was proven, he was immediately released from jail and then pardoned.
Virginia has a restitution system but since he was out before he was pardoned he was not technically eligible. Well, Bob McDonnell, Ken Stolle and Morgan Griffith have called for legislation during the upcoming session to rectify this terrible wrong.
Now, what do you think Creigh Deeds did? That's right, once he heard McDonnell was out in front of this issue he ran to the mountain top and yelled "ME TOO."
Read the Washington Post story linked above. I love how they had to do an "Update" that essentially says "Late this afternoon" Creigh Deeds yelled ME TOO.

Deeds is down 15 in a new poll. Wow.
It is a long way to go here guys---I think the race will tighten up, as we head into the Fall.
There is a lot at stake here,( on the National front) for both parties, so there will definitely be lots of money to be had, in this Governors race.
Spending money often equates to owing favors...look out Virginia, we could be in trouble either way the State votes this November.
