On Wednesday, Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell learned that a majority of Virginia voters oppose his plans for toll roads on Interstate 95, while two Democratic congressmen railed on Capitol Hill against state -clinic regulations he supports, and the chairman of the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority board denounced legislation he has lobbied in favor of.
