I call your Morgan and raise you a Warner

Democratic candidate Philip Forgit just upped the ante in the game of Five-card Stud Endorsements now under way in the 1st Congressional District.

Forgit countered Republican Rob Wittman's Harvey Morgan endorsement with a glowing endorsement from former Gov. Mark Warner:

Philip is an exciting candidate for the U.S. House. He is a nationally recognized school teacher who, as a member of the Navy Reserve, was called to duty in 2005 to serve in Iraq.... 

Now, he’s ready to bring change to Washington, and his first focus will be to bring fresh perspective to the Iraq war. Philip recognizes that we need a new approach – one that requires a new plan to bring this mismanaged war to an end. And Philip Forgit will bring his own on-the-ground experience in Iraq to this critically important dialogue in Congress.

Like many of you, Philip is sick of the bickering that too often cripples Washington. As a teacher and as a soldier, Philip Forgit has the right background to bring common sense to our government.

Anyone care to predict what face card Wittman will pull out to trump a Mark Warner?

John Miller should endorse Wittman. That is, unless all of Miller's talk about being bipartisan was just talk.
