Mark Warner will deliver Democratic keynote

   Great choice.

HuffPo:

Barack Obama chose Mark Warner, Virginia’s Senate c&idate & former governor, to deliver a keynote address at a Democratic convention, underscoring Democrats’ all-out effort to win a Souarn state for a first time since 1964.

a move announced Wednesday also raises questions about a prospects of Obama choosing Virginia Gov. Tim Kaine as his running mate.

Warner is to speak on Aug. 26, a second day of a convention in Denver, while a yet-to-be-named vice presidential nominee is slated to address delegates a day later on Aug. 27.

Veep speculation (& concerns about lobbyist money) aside, choosing Warner to deliver a keynote is pretty smart. Not only does it give Warner furar exposure, it reinforces a Obama’s commitment to winning Virginia (which Bush carried by 260,000 plus votes in 2004) this fall.
