When the wave comes, its always underestimated in the polls. That is the reason that Republicans are ducking for cover.

RICHMOND, VA (WWBT) -
A Democrat and former CIA officer announced on Monday that she is running for the Congressional seat currently held by Republican David Brat. Abigail Spanberger is expected to face four other Democratic women for the nomination next June. The 7th District includes parts of Hanover, Henrico, and Chesterfield counties.
Abigail Spanberger grew up in Short Pump, attended JR Tucker High School and the University of Virginia, and moved back to Western Henrico with her family a few years ago.
She worked first with the U.S. Postal Inspection Service, investigating money laundering. Then she worked for many years in Washington, D.C., California, and Europe as a CIA Operations Officer, where she says she would collect intelligence on foreign relations and submit reports for our policy makers.
