that's why i listen carefully... i'm not generally one for "charisma" , because more than anything else i want serious substance, which can be boring too, unless that 'serious substance' is the message that fires me up (a progressive populist kind of message) and though Warner offered a few platitudes which every democrat is supposed to do, it barely touched on the constitutional crises we face today, if at all.

Again, I'm not impuning his charachter, and obviously Virginians preferred him over his contendor enough to elect him as governor. But presidential material for 2008, considering all we face as a nation?

and speaking of the constitutional crises this nation is facing, the Democratic Leadeship is a significant part of the problem.
