In an episode that sounds like it came out of a high school student council race, losing Virginia Senate candidate Jim Gilmore suspended his communications director for sending a fake e-mail to the Mark Warner campaign:
Gilmore's campaign said it had learned that Communications Director Ana Gamonal had sent an unauthorized e-mail from her home computer to the Democrat's campaign. Gamonal acknowledged she used "a name other than my own" in an attempt to get on Warner's press list.
But ... but ... his press person was using a fake name to try to get her hands on the information contained in Warner's on-the-record, press-release-and-statement-filled press list? Isn't that like donning dark sunglasses and a fake mustache to sneak onto public property?

Yup. That about sums up the level of competence on display when the man was our governor. It's only been a few weeks since he blamed incompetent aides for putting the wrong company on his financial reports. This kind of sloppy staff work is simply a characteristic of organizations run by Gilmore. His employees definitely work up to his capabilities.
The fact that neither Gilmore nor George Allen will be president anytime soon, possibly never, should be taken as convincing proof that there is a just and loving God and that He loves the United States.

I don't know about fake mustaches, but I did hear that a rather suspicious walking potted plant was spotted slowly ambling into a Warner rally.
