Arlington Dems Aim To Provide Obama Margin!
If Barack Obama's road to the White House is to run through Virginia, Arlington Democrats have formulated a plan to provide his margin of victory. Party officials are aiming to give Obama a 60,000-plus-vote margin of victory in the county in November, which, they hope, will help him become the first Democrat to win the commonwealth's electoral votes since Lyndon Johnson's 1964 landslide. “This is not a pipe dream - this is going to happen,” Arlington County Democratic Committee chairman Peter Rousselot said at the party's annual Jefferson-Jackson Day Dinner, held July 11 at the Westin Arlington Gateway.

A New Political Geography
When Sen. Barack Obama chose the Nissan Pavilion in the outer suburbs of Northern Virginia to kick off his general-election campaign, one of the 10,000 supporters there was David Bruzas, who recently moved to the fastest-growing part of a state that is moving rapidly away from its Republican past.
