Some comments on Governor Mark Warner from a Virgina Voter...this is from a discussion board and was emailed to me by a friend...
<<...My thoughts as a Virginian
Mark Warner, in my opinion has lead Virginia through common sense policies. His stances on issues reflects my own: balanced budget, he's not a staunch Dem on entitlements, but he's no ax wielding hatchet man either, he believes in gun rights, supports the death penalty, he believes in leaders working together, he understands that both sides are right and wrong and he has shown a willingness to prefer whats right ahead of party. I see him as a Democrat version of John Warner. I can say he has done a very good job. He hasn't solved all of this states problems. What he did was he led us out of the jungle of fiscal shortages and got us turned back into the right direction. With what was facing him coming in, and having to fix those problems with a GOP majority controlling the state, I would give an A. Like I said, his stance on some issues don't fall in line with the left-wing of the Dem party, such as gun rights, death penalty, both of which he supports consistently. My opinion of him is he would make a good national politician. Oh, and he's a self-made rich guy, he understands economics, big business and so on. I don't think big business would shun him in the way they did Kerry...>> |
