Sebelius, once considered a potential running mate for Sen. Barack Obama, the Democratic presidential nominee, was in town to talk up Obama's policies. She sat among four women who addressed hardships that touched off policy discussions from Sebelius.

It wasn't much different from the gathering organized for Michelle Obama's trip to Richmond last week, when the nominee's wife met with women who are struggling financially.

Sebelius, a Democratic governor in a Republican state, said in a brief interview with the Richmond Times-Dispatch that in "the economic challenges we're facing, women are on the front lines."

And in the Obama campaign's effort to secure Virginia's 13 electoral votes, women are among the groups they are trying to woo.

A Survey USA poll from Sept. 19 to 21 of 716 likely voters in Virginia shows Obama leading Sen. John McCain, the Republican presidential nominee, among women 55 percent to 39 percent, with a margin of error of 3.7 percentage points.

"The road to the White House goes right through the Commonwealth of Virginia," she added.
