West Virginia businessman Mac Warner (R) is in Washington, D.C., this week to promote his campaign to unseat Rep. Alan B. Mollohan (D).

“I’m running because I’m frustrated with the way things are going,” Warner told CQ Politics Tuesday. “I see that we’re heading in the wrong direction with so many of the different components of the economy.”

Warner opposes a Democratic-written health care bill as well as a “cap and trade” climate change bill that he said would be “devastating” to West Virginia’s coal-dependent economy.
