'A businessman's point of view'

The Loudoun Times-Mirror ran an article this morning based on a recent trip by Governor Warner to the Times Community newspapers headquarters.

“My view of a fiscal conservative is someone who pays your bills on time and meets your obligations,” he said. “You don’t punt that to the next guy.” …

“I couldn’t imagine as a business guy that I would dismiss ideas because they have an ‘R’ or a ‘D’ attached to them,” he said.

Warner’s track record on bipartisanship is well known and as he talked last Thursday, he was still flying high from the recent endorsements of two of the state’s most prominent Republicans: former state Sen. John Chichester and former Del. Vince Callahan, the two most powerful men in the General Assembly under both Gilmore and Warner.
