My idiot former Governor Jim Gilmore...can't even come up with an original logo...Steals Clark's


Copy-Cat Fight. It's going to be a looong time before there's any actual news from the presidential trail, which is why there's time for spats such as the one a former campaign staffer for a one-time presidential hopeful, retired Gen. Wesley Clark (D), is picking with the presidential campaign of Jim Gilmore (R).

Drew Pritt, who was a Clark-ite during the 2004 election, said the former Virginia governor has ripped off Clark's for-president logo.

And sure enough, a visit to www.4president.com reveals similarities between the logos: Both feature a row of stars atop the candidate's last name and a similarly positioned election year. Pritt said it's a heist that "shows how bankrupt the Republican Party has become on original ideas."

A Gilmore campaign spokesman laughed off the resemblance, noting that the campaign logos of all presidential candidates are similar - most are rendered in patriotic shades of red, white and blue, and many feature stars and the phrase "for president." Besides, the logo on the Web site was for Gilmore's exploratory committee, and now that he's a full-fledged candidate, Gilmore has a new, sleeker graphic that looks nothing like Clark's, he said.
