I call them like I see them, when it comes to voting behavior. I live in this CD by the way. I have one vote. The primary election will be held in about 10 weeks. Isn't it a bit late to be wondering whether one might run or not? Or is Gilchrist not running in the GOP primary, just the general as a third party candidate? Or is he thinking about running in 2006? His website is very vague about these minor details. In any event, raising money without being a declared candidate seems a bit odd. What will he do with the money he raises if he doesn't run?

I can certainly vouch for that.

I live in this CD by the way.

Cool! Let's have lunch sometime. I'll buy.

Not really, considering that the incumbent just resigned, and the Governor has not even set the date of the election as yet.

Or is Gilchrist not running in the GOP primary, just the general as a third party candidate?

You have a misunderstanding of how this election works. He could not bypass the primary and run as a third-party candidate.

Or is he thinking about running in 2006?

That's really not a timely question at this point. Who knows?

In any event, raising money without being a declared candidate seems a bit odd.

Happens every day. Candidates launch their campaigns that way all the time.

What will he do with the money he raises if he doesn't run?

Whatever is legally allowed for him to do with it.

But personally, I think he's running. He is very well-liked and admired by many people who want him to do this.
