More on Warner and CUs:Warner removed provisions in the bill that outlawed partnership contracts “purporting to bestow the benefits of marriage,” and left intact sections of the measure that would restrict the recognition of civil unions from other jurisdictions in his amendments.

Interesting. I find that disappointing. Sadly, the candidates that do support gay marriage are, all too often (if not always) simply too liberal on every other issue for me to ever even think about voting for them. I understand why, for you, this issue is so important and I believe it is important; but what I am looking for in 2008 is someone with real domestic leadership on education, job creation, balancing the budget, improving our commitments to reducing pollution and increasing our funding of nuclear, coal, solar, wind and hydro technologies; I also want someone that can reduce government waste and no governor in the United States has been as effective in this area as Mark Warner.

From what I have seen and heard about the man, I like him as a candidate for President in '08. What I read in the OP about his contributions to the education system encourages me that much more.
