Are Carpetbaggers Buying the Commonwealth?

Democrat gubernatorial candidate Creigh Deeds has announced that he raised $3.4 million during June. Pretty impressive. Right?
What Deeds and his pals at the Washington Post aren’t telling you is WHERE that money came from. Thank goodness for VPAP.
$500,000 from the Democratic Governor’s Association. $500,000 from AFSCME (government workers union). $100,000 from SEIU (another union). Plus, there was over $300,000 in large donations recorded just before the primary.
With Deeds running, it’s starting to sound a lot like 1865 all over again.
