Wake-Up Call: Pete Ronayne on Virginia Politics

Sunday, October 7th, 2007

Pete Ronayne in the WNRN StudiosOn this week’s edition of the Sunday Morning Wake-Up Call, UVa’s Pete Ronayne of the Federal Executive Institute stops by the studio to talk politics with host Rick Moore. They discuss the major Virginia races coming up in the 2008 election, including the popularity of Charlottesville as a Democratic presidential campaign stop, and Mark Warner’s political future. With John Warner coming out of the Governor’s Mansion, could the “other Warner” be on his way back to it? What about Jim Gilmore? Tom Davis? Also, how has Virginia’s political climate been changing - what does it mean to be a “purple state”?

With presidential nomination conventions coming up in the next few months, Ronayne and Gibson talk about what’s important to candidates who still need to be chosen by their party, and how the game will change once official party nominations have been made early next year.

Bob Gibson, a political reporter for the Daily Progress, was also on hand in the studio to comment on the discussion.
