Friday Winchester Senator Russ Potts

announced his independent bid for
governor Friday.

That night he received two
letters.

One urging him to resign from the
Republican caucus and another, signed
by all but two Senate Republicans,
endorsing Jerry Kilgore for governor.

Senator Potts calls it
"gamesmanship" and says he's a
Republican for life.

Potts says he'll lay out his
agenda in the coming weeks.


In a statement, Jerry Kilgore
calls Potts' candidacy "horrible news
for Tim Kaine's campaign."

Meanwhile, Tim Kaine says Potts'
candidacy will only benefit his
campaign.
