I can hardly think of anyone I have personally admired more than Senator John Warner over the years. I met him while I was a political reporter and he was seeking the nomination for U S. Senate in 1978.
He has been enormously popular in Virginia and, from all accounts, is one of the hardest working Senators in Washington. With only a couple of exceptions, his voting record has been steadfastly conservative and he has been a champion of a strong defense for America.
Why then, one might ask, will Warner face a stem challenge from his fellow Republican Jim Miller in a primary to be held in June of 1996?
The answer is that from the moment Warner'decided he could not support the candidacy of Mike Farris for lieutenant governor in 1993, there was no doubt that someone would challenge him for the nomination. And that became even more obvious last year when Warner not only refused to support party nominee Oliver North for U.S. Senate but actively recruited a candidate to run against him as an independent.
