Democratic Sen. Mark Warner, who is widely expected to win re-election this November, has a special guest in his latest TV ad: The retired Republican senator whom Warner succeeded back in 2008.
"For 30 years, it was my privilege to represent you in the United States Senate," former Sen. John Warner (no relation) says in the ad, which the Mark Warner campaign first gave to Politico. "In Congress, to get things done, you gotta have the guts to cross the aisle and reach bipartisan agreement. That's what I did; that's what Mark Warner does today."
