Warner, a former governor, is generally quite popular in the state, so Gillespie faces an uphill challenge. Still, one of his adviser's who leaked the news to Politico maintains that Gillespie believes the race is (shocker) "winnable" because (shocker again) of Obamacare.

"You have something special and important here. Somehow you manage to teach and suggest and introduce the reader to concepts in a way that feels inclusive. Like, we're thinking about it together. Partly it might be because the subject, bottom-up, is innately understood by all of us and so it feels like you're stirring up stuff we already know. But also I think it's because you truly are practiced at connection consciousness and so it's natural for you (I'm guessing) to write about it with a desire to include us. As a reader I was learning more because it feels like you're inviting me to think with you."
