Fiscal Progressivism

As a Virginia Democrat, I can't help but adore Mark Warner. Before he came to office in 2002, Successive Governors both Senators and both the state senate and House of Delegates were dominated by Republicans. Today, the success of Virginia Democrats is impossible to overlook. We hold the Governorship, and the state senate, the House Republican majority has dropped from 30 seats in 2002 to a mere 10, and Mark Warner's claim to retiring John Warner's Senate seat seems almost as certain as gravity.
You can argue the causes of the rise of Virginia Democrats, but you can't argue that Mark Warner has been a singular champion.
Thus it is with grave disappointment that I consistently her him and others use the dated and failed term "fiscal conservative" to describe the Governor's achievements.
