COLEMAN A WINNER

Oliver North has a silver tongue that has impressed many, but the silver has been tarnished by exposure of his problem with the truth today as well as in the past.

Chuck Robb has not been a productive senator for Virginia and has had questionable ethical problems as well.

Marshall Coleman is a Virginian who also served in Vietnam, and returned to complete his education in Virginia. He won five elections and served Virginia well in the General Assembly and as state attorney general before his narrow losses in gubernatorial races with Robb and Wilder. He is not a loser. He is the only viable candidate for U.S. senator.
