HENRICO COUNTY, Va. (WTVR) – Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell greeted President Barack Obama Friday morning when Air Force One landed at Richmond International Airport.

On the tarmac Gov. McDonnell gave the President a golf glove, printed with the slogan: “Virginia is for Lovers,” the White House reported.

“He was very impressed that we knew he wore a left-handed glove,”
McDonnell told pool reporter Michael Scherer. “I told him we had done our
opposition research.”
