Mark Warner is to be the keynote speaker at the Democratic Convention. The Times-Dispatch covers it, burying this excellent quotation at the very end:
Gilmore’s campaign spokeswoman, Ana Gamonal, said the choice of Warner “is an honor for him.” But, she added, “it puts to rest the false claim that he is bipartisan. What will he say to 20,000 liberal Democrats that will sound bipartisan to the working people of Virginia?
An excellent question, especially since he will be sharing the stage that night with Hillary Clinton and with Nancy Pelosi. So next time you hear Mark Warner calling himself a centrist who will represent all Virginians, keep in mind that a man is known by the company he keeps.
