Mark Warner: "Radical Centrist"

By the way, gotta love this Mark Warner quote about Jim "Drive the State Into the Ditch" Gilmore:  "I am looking forward to a discussion of my record as governor and his record as governor."

So are we, sir, so are we. :)

P.S. See DPVA press release on the "flip."

Dear Friend,

Last week, we were once again reminded why Mark Warner is the best candidate to represent Virginia in the U.S. Senate.

During the annual Shad Planking in Wakefield, Mark Warner honored the spirit of the traditionally bipartisan festival and talked about his goal of going to the U.S. Senate to build a coalition of centrist problem-solvers. That's the way Warner served as Governor, and that's why we need to elect him to the Senate this November.

Jim Gilmore, on the other hand, made a choice to display the failed, desperation politics of the past. Gilmore was hyper-partisan, mean-spirited and factually dishonest.

Everyone has picked up on it. The Associated Press called Gilmore "combative from the start," while the Richmond Times-Dispatch reported that "the normally light-hearted mood of the annual Shad Planking quickly evaporated." The Fredericksburg Free Lance-Star noted that while Warner spoke of "bipartisan cooperation," Gilmore "focused almost entirely on Warner."

Jim Gilmore - failed Governor, failed Republican National Committee chairman and failed presidential wannabe.

That must be why he resorts to the failed style of politics Virginia voters have been rejecting.

We have to be ready to fight back.  Will you help us?

Our friend Mark Warner will be on the ballot in 2008, yet again answering the call to serve our Commonwealth as the next United States Senator from Virginia.

We can't afford to let this visionary leader of our party face this tough battle alone. Nor can we afford to be complacent or overconfident. No campaign is ever easy, and no outcome is ever certain.

Why do they have McCain-Gilmore signs?  Gilmore isn't the Republican nominee yet...


And why do they want to tie themselves (Lowell - 4/21/2008 4:04:40 PM)
to this?



Ummm, maybe because they're losers ... (j_wyatt - 4/21/2008 5:39:45 PM)

"I am looking forward to a discussion of my record as governor and his record as governor."

That would be most entertaining.

At least Gilmore has one thing right... (Pain - 4/21/2008 6:31:13 PM)
...that there will be a Democrat in the Whitehouse come January.
