Former Gov. Jim Gilmore was everywhere at the Advance. His campaign had a good, well-organized presence. His address to the College Republicans was a good one, providing a brief preview of an amped-up Jim Gilmore that some of us who are fairly new to politics haven’t really seen.

After the speech to the CRs, Gov. Gilmore was kind enough to sit down for an interview. Here is part of the Gilmore interview, with photos and audio all taken at the Advance. (Opens in a new window. Then you can click the small white triangle at bottom left to play the interview).

The excerpt has Gilmore’s thoughts on Iraq, and how it fits into the bigger picture of the war on terror. Did you read the Gilmore op-ed in the Washington Post this summer, and did it leave you with questions? Then you will want to check out this interview.

More excerpts will be posted later.

A very big thank you to Jim and Roxane Gilmore for sharing their time. And a big thank you to them for being willing to give up who knows how much time to make this Senate run and then serve, I hope, in the Senate.
