UPDATE: Another Sign of Democrats' Strength Heading into '08

Yesterday I wrote a post about Louisiana Sen. Mary Landrieu's impressive fundraising numbers(considering she's the one Democrat who is expected to lose in '08). Here is an update, again showing the strength of the Democrats, even in traditionally red states.

In Virginia, a Republican state for the most part, a Democrat has more than double the amount of cash on hand than that of his two Republican opponents combined. Democrat Mark Warner has raised $1.1 million since he entered the race on 9/13. That means he raised over a million dollars in just two weeks (the money count was totaled at the end of September). His two potential GOP opponents, Jim Gilmore and Tom Davis, raised $200,000 and $222,000 respectively.
