LEESBURG, Va. — At a time when some campaigns can't agree to one debate, Democratic incumbent Jennifer Wexton and her Republican challenger, Hung Cao, came here to Leesburg's National Conference Center for their third debate. "Business owners, you are the backbone of America. You built this country, and you are my hero. This is I fought for this country," said Cao in his opening statement. Retired Navy Captain Hung Cao of Purcellville, told the Loudoun Chamber, which put on the debate, that he stood for government de-regulation in nearly every way of life: "Never has government been able to come in and tell you when you can open your business, who you let in, what you check in the door, what they stick in their face, or stick in their bodies.
