McDonnell Lead Shrinks to 4 points, 51%-47%.
Race Now a Toss Up, Deeds has The Big Mo headed into October.
Right-Wing Theocrat, Bob McDonnell, is facing some well-deserved hell-fire for his bogus attempt to cover-up his extreme social views, and put up a facade that he is a "moderate". OH REALLY!?
VOTERS aren't buying it, and the media smells blood in the water. The electorate in the super-critical Northern Virginia region is coming to their senses. Creigh Deeds may be a bit too moderate for some in NoVa and Metro Richmond, but if we want to sustain the progressive gains from 2008, it won't happen with R-Wing Theocrat McDonnell in the governor's mansion.
Meanwhile... the Dems in the rural western regions are slugging it out with the Tea Bag Brigades... manned by historically entrenched bigots and the occasionally plain stupid, who have been manipulated and scared beyond reason by Faux News, et. al.
It's not a pretty sight to see flagrant wing-nuttery of the KKK and John Birchers ilk in resurgence.

PRESS RELEASE FROM DEEDS CAMPAIGN:
WASHINGTON POST POLL SHOWS DEEDS SURGING IN RACE FOR GOVERNOR
Second poll in three days confirms stunning collapse for McDonnell as his social agenda takes its toll
ALEXANDRIA - A new statewide poll conducted by the Washington Post shows that Creigh Deeds has surged in the race for Governor over the past month, as more voters learn about Bob McDonnell’s socially divisive agenda and record.
According to the Washington Post, "The change among likely voters -- down from a 15-point margin in mid-August -- coincides with the publication and ensuing controversy surrounding McDonnell's graduate school thesis, in which he writes of his opposition to working women, feminists and gay people."
The Washington Post poll comes on the heels of a new poll by Rasmussen Reports that shows Deeds surging to within two points of McDonnell, by a margin of 48-46%. Two weeks ago, McDonnell held a nine-point lead.
