Republican and repeated presidential candidate Alan Keyes weighed in on the Virginia governor's race during a stop in Waynesboro Monday.

Keyes spoke at a conference held by Comfort Care Women's Health.

He says the economy will play a big part in how people vote this year. He adds he would like to see the candidate that exercises the most fiscal responsibility win.

Keyes also gave some bipartisan criticism, saying politicians on both sides have lost sight of the principals upon which the country was founded.
