This week, Michael is joined by Dr. Stephen Farnsworth, co-author of a chapter in The New Dominion: The Twentieth-Century Elections That Shaped Modern Virginia. They discuss the 1981 election of Chuck Robb for Virginia's Governor--how Robb escaped the legacy of the Byrd Machine and President Johnson's Great Society, pushing the Democratic message to a more centrist line that would hold for the next several decades.
