DEL.ICIO.USChasing the base: Gilmore comes to woo disenchanted lawmakers
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Only days after a meeting of Republican state lawmakers bemoaning the lack of true conservatives in the ‘08 race for the White House, former Virginia governor Jim Gilmore will come to Atlanta on Tuesday to make the case for his long-shot candidacy.
He’ll be squired around the Capitol by state Sen. Chip Pearson (R-Dawsonville).
Gilmore was elected governor in 1997 with promises to cut the property tax that local governments in Virginia levied on personal cars and pickup trucks.

“True conversative,” meaning out of touch with the vast majority of American society.

That would be my definition of true conservative. I agree with you Peyton.

You boys need to be checking the paperwork. Leavell’s land ain’t worth anywhere near what the AJC is reporting. That sounds like Sonny math.

Why can’t we get Democrats down here?
40% is still a lot for any state.
