Have you ever heard of Jim Gilmore?

[SummerSnow]

He plans to announce his candidacy for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination in the first week of August 2015

This guy is dangerous...

Gilmore is the President & CEO of the Free Congress Foundation , a conservative think tank which was founded by Paul Weyrich. Paul Weyrich was a white supremacist, anti Semite, anti gay etc. He passed away in 2008

1. Virginia. A Quinipac poll which a little over a week ago indicated the people of Virginia didn't

Your assessment is correct about Gilmore.

The other republicans aren't that much better either

She calls him her BF. Ironically, that is. He has been nice to her (apparently) and she wants him to come on her show if and when he announces. Should be -time!

4. I had, but forgot about him several years ago.

He's currently polling at 0.1 percent. He also lost his Senate run in Virginia by almost 40 points. If he's dangerous, I think we'll be okay.
