Jerry Kilgore: Information

I just checked http://www.opensecrets.org and I found out a few things about Jerry Kilgore, empty-headed GOP candidate for governor in Virginia. Kilgore contributed $250 to the Oliver North campaign on 11/3/94. Kilgore must have believed that Oliver North agreed with him politically to contribute money to him.

Karl Rove was scheduled to speak at a fundraiser for Kilgore, but Rove had to cancel. Rove, who has appeared four times in front of Special Prosecutor Fitzgerald investigating the CIA lead case, must have
had more pressing issues (scheduling conflict?). Instead the GOP fundraiser had Ken Mehlman, GOP spin doctor, fill in. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/10/15/AR2005101501286_pf.html
How is it that everywhere that the republicans go, there is always a problem with ethics. Mr. Kilgore apparently is involved in some scandal. http://www.washingtontimes.com/metro/20050811-110906-9834r.htm
