I have two words to say about the 2008 election....

[liberalitch]

MARK WARNER

[demnan]

1. Hmmmmmm . . .

Centrist, fiscal conservative, pro-gun, Good looking - perhaps.

[liberalitch]

2. He will not be able to run as Gov. again but.....

we may be on to something here.

[T Wolf]

3. Why push another repuke-lite?

Haven't you learned that playing safe is a sure path to defeat?

[Birthmark]

4. I have a sure way to win.

The Democrats could just endorse the Republican choice and save a lot of time, money, and effort.

[rooboy]

5. LOL... Maybe everyone could just settle for ol' Zell. n/t

[SCRUBDASHRUB]

6. Mark Warner has about a 60% approval rating here in VA. Warner is

from NoVA. Tim Kaine is probably going to run for Governor next. Not a bad choice, actually. Warner is a young and not too shabby looking fella. Not a bad choice.

[Progressive420]

7. Sorry but I think Mark should run against George Allen I almost hate

him as much as Bush

[lcooksey]

8. Warner vs. Allen

Me, too. Allen's been too busy working for the RNC to do anything for the state. Warner can probably beat him.

[spooky3]

9. I agree.

[Virginian]

12. I really, really dislike Allen.

What a fake person. That shit eating grin always gets to me. Does he grin like that at funerals?

He has always been in lock step with the ultra conservatives. A mouth piece for the fundies. Originally from California, he doesn't really belong in Virginia politics and doesnt' fit in California politics.

If Warner beat Allen for the Senate, then both our Senators would be Warner.

What if we run Warner for Pres in 08 and The repubs run Allen?

I want Allen knocked off his perch by anyone who can do it. What about Wilder? Where is Mary Sue Terry these days?

[magnolia]

15. I specifically....

...watched him during that first service after 9/11...and YES...he grinned all the way through. I think he has some kind of facial malfunction disorder. Whatever...I can't stand that man!!!!

[BlackVelvet04]

10. Is it my imagination

or did Warner not do a thing to help Kerry? No endorsement, no nothing. Why is that?

[Progressive420]

11. He did endorse Kerry way back in the Primaries and he begged Kerry not

to pull money and staff out of VA in the last few weeks

[Catchawave]

13. Yeah, we coulda gone blue with a few more dollars....

...so how did Kerry wind up with a 15 mil balance?

[DaveinMD]

14. Mark Warner

is not Republican light. He's a very good governor, former Chair of the State Party, and a great candidate. The Democratic Party is fiscally conservative. Deficits are bad policy. He's a great Democrat.

[ElectroPrincess]

16. Yes, I think you've made an excellent point :-)

We can only hope that the group of pink tutu pansies we begrudgingly know as the DLC recognizes what a gem of a candidate Mark Warner would be. ;)
