A high-profile Republican will officially endorse Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton on Wednesday, the Democratic nominee's campaign announced Tuesday evening.

Former Navy secretary and Sen. John Warner is set to back Clinton Wednesday morning, adding his name to the list of conservatives who have picked the Obama Cabinet member over Republican nominee Donald Trump.

John Warner is NOT a conservative, and did NOT endorse Ollie North for Senator either - he’s a true blue turncoat

And his support of a third party candidate cost North and the GOP a Senate seat

If Cruz or Rubio had been the nominee Warner and all of the other RINO Uniparty folks would of stayed in the GOP tent and voted for either one of them. The fact they’re all against Trump only confirms to me we had the right guy all along for the nomination and in a little over a month the presidency.

Jon Warner? He’s a joke even in VA.

Hillary can have all the Republican endorsements she wants.

Rank and file Republicans are going to vote Trump.

And you know what the funny part is about all this??

There’s zero enthusiasm for her from her own party base!

Inside the Beltway endorsement! I'm surprised! /S

Warner always struck me as being a hamburger short of a Happy Meal!

Big surprise. Warner is the same guy who backed Ollie North’s Dem opponent years ago. Former husband of Liz Taylor and boyfriend to Barbara Wa WA Walters.

BTW, I used that line on Tony Snow's radio show. He thought it was a hoot! I don't remember who I said it about. I do remember where I was, what I was doing (driving) and time of the morning, but can't remember who it was about!

Nothing says “young, fresh, and focused on the future” like an endorsement from the crumbling shell of RINO John Warner.

Obenshain was the conservative. Warner was the stand-in after a plane crashed and the conservative Reagan republican died.

Who? He's still alive?

"Other former high-ranking Republicans who have endorsed Clinton include diplomat John Negroponte and Brent Scowcroft."

Oh, well, Trump's done in Va. He might as well just pack it up and leave.

Senior citizen Warner endorsed fellow senior citizen Hillary.

Wow, that will get millenials revved up to vote for her!

Hillary is living in another world and will get the shock of her life in November.

From the Nixon Watergate tapes in which the President is discussing the appointment of a new Navy Secretary over the objecitons of the White House staff: “Hell, any a****** idiot can do that job; we even had John Warner doing it”. And from the then-chair of the Virginia Democratic Party after John Warner narrowly won his senate seat in 1976 and only with the help of his then-wife Elizabeth Taylor’s star power: “The good citizens of Virginia just elected the three biggest boobs in the State to the Senate”.

Is john warner still alive? If so, he’s a traitor to his country. Anyone that would put a terrorist loving socialist like Hillary in office is not American, imo.
