Survey USA polled people across the
state, and found Governor Kaine passed.
Virginians were asked to grade him on
his Democratic response to the State of
the Union address.

Thirty-six percent gave Kaine a B.

Twenty-one percent gave him an A.

And 20-percent gave him a C.

As for the President, 55 percent said
Mr. Bush focused on the important
issues, while 40 percent think he
failed to address them.
