Why Did Mark Warner Not Run?

[Scarlette0hara]

Google: Mark Warner bimbo eruption

[Scarlette0hara]

According to the Washington Post, "Virginia's politicians struggled to balance car-tax relief against demands for public services."[5] When Gilmore left office in January 2002, the state's "rainy day fund," or revenue stabilization fund, contained $1 billion.

Go to wikipedia and google Jim Gilmore and Mark Warner and ou will see that the reason that people have suc a misguided opinion about Gilmore is because Warner trashed him as soon as he got in office.

Sorry, but if I told you why he didn't run or was considered for vp, I'd have to kill ya.

I usually don't vote Democrat, in fact I cannot stand Tim Kaine, but Warner was a damn good Governor. When he ran the Commonwealth of Virginia, it was voted as the best ran state in the U.S.

Gilmore on the other hand was a idiot that ran the state into dept.

[greg2009]

Debt not dept-Warner ran as a centrist and as a fiscally conservative Democrat. That is how Democrats win in Virginia and that is how Warner picked up votes in rural and suburban areas of the state. If he ran for President he would run to the left in the primaries to gain young, new, female, liberal, and black voters.

Excuse me for my typo. I guess your a Gilmore fan.

Gilmore, from what I have seen is still using the same Republican campaign BS that worked in the 90's, but is as outdated as cassette tapes. I liked and voted for Allen, but he sided with Bush WAY to much on some issues which didn't help his popularity too much.

Regardless no one will be able to fill John Warner's shoes. He had brains, class, and was the last of his kind. He will be missed.

Because he's running for Senate....

[Senateguy]

I think he cheated on his wife and has women issues back in the day. I think he didn't want to put his kids through the b.s. that is associated with running for President and I think his wife wanted nothing to do with it. I think it was a combo of women problems, his wife didn't want it, he didn't want to put his kids through it. Now he is going to win a US Senate seat in a total complete walk

[criverauva]

No, libel would be an outright accusation. Senateguy has only posited a theory, albeit one with little evidence.

[redgalaxy4]

Don't worry, we haven't seen the last of Warner. He'll run for President in 2012, mark my words.

[elcamino7887]

Warner has never worked a day in his adult life.He makes no apology for ripping off millions from US taxpayers through his cell phone schemes. Hes not for the middle class.

[psatm]

God you people are morons. Why didn't he run? Why didn't Dan Quayle, Jesse Jackson, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Pete Domenici or Donald Duck not run? THEY DIDN"T WANT TO RUN. It's a free county.

And you pinheads (like republic1787) - talk all the shit you want, it won't matter. Warner will be the next Senator from Virginia. Not only that, he'll enjoy his wealth and enormous popularity for the rest of his life ... how do you kids compare to that?

[elcamino7887]

Warner cant be trusted

[tweakes]

Trust or not, he fixed Virginia after Gilmore screwed it up. On a side note: It's fine that people don't like Warner, but how can Gilmore even run against him?? Of all people! The Republican party could put up a better candidate than that. He screwed up VA, he screwed up the RNC ... what good has he done?? Just kinda funny to me.

[republic1787]

Hillary's people have a thick file on him. Rumor is he's gay.

[therealscl]

yeah, he has a bit o gay in his past.

[stingray23464]

hes running for senate because in 2012 or 2016 he'll be in a prime spot for the nomination (depending on how 2008 goes)

[therealscl]

Love the video!

[rick9565]

He bailed out after seeing the crowds that Obama was drawing. He was willing to try his hand at competing with Clinton, but not against two big names.

He can bide his time now as a U.S Senator.

[HELLFIRE8282]

he's running for senate now.he's being a good democrat.

[jtvagop]

probably hillary blacmailed him about an Affair
