Mark Warner in 2008-- anyone know much about him?

[Muddy Waters Guitar]

I've been getting positive vibes about him as a prospective Democratic nominee in 2008, and in fact I'd see him maybe as one of our "Big 5" contenders (along with Clark, Gore, Boxer, Schweitzer) who would both rally the Democratic base and capture numerous Independents and disaffected Republicans. He'd certainly be vastly better than Hillary Clinton or any of the other ultra-hawkish DLCers who want to push the US into a state of semi-permanent war and would split Dem voters, with massive 3rd-party defections. The problem is, I don't know a whole lot about him.

Right now, my choice for 2008 is sort of a tie between Wes Clark and Al Gore (should Al decide to run). But I have been hearing some decent things about Warner too. On paper he seems to be the ultimate candidate to win the White House for the Democrats in 2008-- a popular governor of a conservative Southern Red State like Virginia who'd bring Red States and Swing States into our corner, a decent speaker from what I've heard. He hasn't been tarnished by Iraq war support or other warmongering. On the environment-- one of the other extremely important issues besides Iraq (Mother Nature needs us to stand up now)-- I know hardly anything, but a link sent to me by a buddy suggests he's strong here: http://www.caprep.com/0305054.htm
"Historic environmental legislation" is no small praise!

Maybe Mark Warner would be quite a powerhouse for us in 2008, but I at least don't know a whole lot about him. As I said, right now my support is basically a tie between Clark and Gore for 2008, but if anyone knows more about Mark Warner and can vouch for him, I might become a Warner supporter myself. Anyone (maybe any Virginians out there) can shed more light about Warner, as governor and his political career in general?
