ormer Virginia Gov. Jim Gilmore announced he is suspending his campaign for president.
"My campaign was intended to offer the gubernatorial experience, with the track record of a true conservative, experienced in national security, to unite the party." Gilmore said, "My goal was to focus on the importance of this election as a real turning point, and to emphasize the dangers of continuing on a road that will further undermine America's economy and weaken our national security."

He’d get more coverage if he stalked the current Virginia Gubinor McCaliph.

By the looks of his votes, he sure must have a large family.

His campaign has become comfortably numb.

IIRC, he had a good term as Governor.
Kept his promises and stayed out of trouble.
I’d hope that Gilmore would consider running for the seat again. It wouldn’t be the first time that someone has served non-consecutive terms.
To: rdl6989
Too bad. He was just beginning to make his move!

Awww man. How come my candidate never gets the nomination. Well, there’s always 2020. Who will I vote for now? Help me out, txhurl.
