Mark Warner, D-Va.<\/p>\n<p>Bert Mizusawa clinched the Republican nomination for Senate in The Old Dominion against two other hopefuls eyeing Warner\u2019s seat, and a chance for power in a state that hasn\u2019t sent a Republican to the upper chamber in more than two decades.<\/p>\n<p>Warner is a formidable opponent, having won his last election by roughly 12 points and commanding a position of power on the <a href=\"https:\/\/foxnews.com\/category\/politics\/senate\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Senate Intelligence Committee.<\/a> It\u2019s also a race that is not on the national Republican map for flip opportunities.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/foxnews.com\/opinion\/morning-glory-republicans-stop-fighting-cant-let-democrats-seize-senate\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>MORNING GLORY: REPUBLICANS, STOP FIGHTING EACH OTHER.

So I do that knowing that for the low price of about $100, I can get more attention on me, as evidenced by your calling me, than anything else that I could do with my ideas as a politician,&#8221; Moran said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Because we don&#8217;t live in a constitutional republic where ideas can win.
