None of the 16 who voted in the poll over in the right sidebar got it right. Including me.
Former Virginia governor Jim Gilmore has dropped out of the Republican Presidential race.
The 57-year-old Republican said in a written statement that his late start, near the end of April, and the front-loaded primary schedule “have made it impractical to continue to pursue this path towards further public service.”
“I have come to believe that it takes more than a positive vision for our nation’s future to successfully compete for the presidency,” Gilmore said. “I believe that it takes years of preparation to put in place both the political and financial infrastructure to contest what now amounts to a one-day national primary in February.”
The next Republican debate on August 5th will be just a little less crowded. Of course that will depend on the timing of Fred Thompson’s anticipated announcement.
Time to go update the poll.
