Kaine Takes to the Stage

Gov. Tim Kaine went on stage for the first time just a moment ago promising the Democratic supporters on hand in McLean that “we’re going to have a lot to celebrate tonight.”

Kaine said he is getting “good news” on congressional races and the presidential race for Virginia’s 13 electoral votes, which McCain leads after early counties reporting.

“We know where those numbers are coming from and we know who hasn’t reported,” Kaine said. “The places that haven’t reported are likely to be a little friendly,” he said in a clear reference to the Democratic stronghold of Northern Virginia, the state’s most populous region.
