Jim Gilmore is the GOP nominee, and looking for a stronger Republican to run is a waste of time. So conservatives should rally around him, in spite of his weaknesses. Perhaps Mark Warner will stumble on the trail.
Marky Mark’s campaign theme will “I cleaned up Gilmore’s fiscal mess.”
If we are to judge a politican’s success by how he/she grew the party, Warner and Rendell would be the top of the list for Rodents/ For the GOP side, it would be Jeb Bush and Ralph Reed (for GA).
John Warner will probably be supporting Mark Warner, even if not publicly, right?
Correct , of course. The same goes nationally with Rudy, Mitt or Fred. But, getting the stubborn blind Pub Purists to realize any Dem is worse than any Pub is a hard row to hoe. And now that Va. is turning back to its Dem roots , Gilmore will be a hard sell unfortunately. I pray for his victory. Mark Warner is another clever socialist Dem who is slick and reminds me of a former Prez!
