From The Hill, about the political future of the moderate-Democrat-turned-Republican and former U.S. Congressman: "Virginia Republican officials are pleased that Davis relocated to the Commonwealth [from Alabama] and joined them in the fight to elect the GOP presidential ticket in the battleground state."
The article continues about Mr. Davis: "House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-Va.) told The Hill that Davis has a 'bright future' in Virginia politics. The Richmond-based lawmaker called Davis’s speech on day one of the GOP convention 'awesome.' 'I have met with him, I have spoken with Artur several times, and I’m really excited to have him as a Virginian and we’ve got big plans for Artur,' Cantor said. There is a lot of speculation that Davis will run against Rep. Gerry Connolly (D-Va.) in 2014."
