The Washington Post is reporting that former Governor Mark Warner is clearly thinking about getting back into politics, he’s just not sure of which job to run for yet:
Former governor Mark R. Warner (D-Va.) has begun to talk seriously with friends, past aides and potential future advisers about his political plans and is expected to announce his intentions in September, shortly after Sen. John W. Warner (R-Va.) makes public whether he will run for reelection.
One Virginia Democrat said there is a “95 percent” likelihood Mark Warner will either run for Senate in 2008 or governor in 2009. If John Warner decides to stick around for a sixth term, Mark Warner would probably turn his attentions to the open-seat gubernatorial race. (Virginia governors cannot serve consecutive terms.) If John Warner steps aside, a Senate bid is more likely, though not certain, the source said. Expect a decision from Mark Warner soon after John Warner has made clear his plans, the source added.
Umm, okay.
