Biden Coming to Southwest Virginia

The Roanoke Times' Blue Ridge Caucus blog reports that Vice President Biden will be campaigning in Southwest Virginia on Tuesday, August 14 and Wednesday the August 15.  The Obama campaign is putting a lot of effort into Virginia in the hopes of keeping it in his column in November.  McCain won the region handily in 2008.  Biden's visit comes on the heels of a visit to Norfolk, Ashland, and Manassas by Romney this weekend.
