Davis is Done

Washington Posts’ The Fix amongst others are reporting that Rep. Tom Davis announce that he will not run for the VA Senate seat being vacated by Sen. John Warner. You can’t really blame the guy in light of the circumstances – he’s polling 24 points behind Mark Warner and the recent decision of the Republican Party of Virginia to have a convention instead of a primary also hurts him. It should be noted that former VA Gov. Jim Gilmore isn’t polling any better than Davis against Mark Warner, but at this point it looks like cut and run is the best move Davis could make right now. Not exactly sure when he is expected to announce this officially, but the money is on Thursday.
