Warner has been embracing the democratic party for several years now.
I think Warner being one of the seven annoys me more than even McCain. Warner should know better, but he's what, 78 now, and feels he can now do or say anything he wants, as he most likely won't run again. Too bad though, that he has to take his party down with him.
Disagree. Warner, like McCain, embraces himself every day when he looks at himself in the full length mirror. I will say this much about Warner, he's been a strong advocate of the military for years, and it's not by accident he chairs the committee he's on.
While it's true that Arlen Specter was probably more responsible for sabotaging his nomination than any other Republican, you can't really fault him.
After all, no one ever seriously considered Arlen Specter anything other than a Philadelphia Republican, i.e. a liberal Democrat.
But Warner's vote against him lends the leftist witch-hunt against that remarkable jurist a retroactive aura of legitimacy, which allows historians to claim that he was a "judicial extremist," and tar him with other blatantly false calumnies.
-good times, G.J.P. (Jr.)
