By Associated Press | April 27, 2007
DES MOINES, Iowa — A former Virginia governor, Jim Gilmore, yesterday entered the race for the Republican presidential nomination with an Internet-driven announcement he said allows him to talk directly to voters.
"This is going to be something unique in American politics and something I think is the wave of the future, which is the chance to talk directly to the people as we develop the campaign through the Internet," Mr. Gilmore said.
He made his announcement in a Web cast originating from the Iowa Republican Party headquarters in Des Moines and sent out over his campaign's Web site.
