This special meeting is to bring together Republicans from the four counties in our region - Albemarle, Greene, Madison and Orange to build a stronger unified network through which we can grow and advance more effectively the conservative message and principles of our party in the region...
Our keynote speaker will be Virgil Goode, our 5th District Congressman who as you know, lost to the Democrat challenger Tom Periello in an upset, coming from behind on a wave of millions of dollars in contributions from the DNC and Northern Democrats in the final weeks of the campaign. We can expect to hear a candid presentation by Congressman Goode on the race, the current status of the GOP and where we need to go from here to reestablish our message of authentic conservatism to reclaim our dominance in the political and social culture for the good of the Commonwealth.
