Republican says Democrat will raise taxes…..who saw that one coming?

Is he playing a game, or actually running for the United States Senate? I can’t tell. Jim Gilmore, Republican candidate for Senate in VA launched his general election campaign this week. How did he start things off?

Gilmore: ‘Mark Warner’s just like a hungry piranha. There’s just no end to his appetite for the people’s tax money.’

Why not focus on specifics? Why does he choose to make blanket accusations that everyone knows are, at the least, blatant exaggerations? Gilmore talked about the people’s tax money. Well, the truth is, the people overwhelmingly approved of Mark Warner’s time as Governor and are currently saying that they want him to represent them in the United States Senate.

I think Gilmore should spend more time explaining to voters why he deserves their trust…hopefully he will focus on more than just a car tax .
