Report: Ed Gillespie Launching Senate Bid Today

Romney Campaign Senior Adviser Ed Gillespie photographed at the Romney Campaign's Boston headquarters, Friday, June 1, 2012.

Former Republican National Committee Chairman Ed Gillespie is expected to make a low-key entrance into the Virginia Senate race Thursday, the Washington Post reported.

An anonymous person with knowledge of Gillespie’s plans told the Post the former RNC chairman won’t hold a public event to launch his bid, but will instead debut a new campaign website.

Gillespie has made no secret of his plans to challenge incumbent Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA), and apparently removed a clip of him discussing comprehensive immigration reform from his website in preparation for the Senate run.
