BEST FOR VIRGINIA

I liked Oliver North, but I did not believe he was the best person for the position he was running for.

Sen. John Warner does what he feels is right for Virginia and not just what would be right for his political future. I an grateful to him for this. He has my vote, and it's because he is the best person for the position he is running for.
