...string quartet, the ubiquitous black dress, and white tablecloths set the mood in the Kirkland Dining Hall last night at the second Harvard College Democrats Gala Banquet, which honored presidential hopeful Mark Warner for his unconventional and successful approach to politics during his time as governor of Virginia. The sold-out event, attended by 180 people and five months in the making, boasted appearances from local politicians and speeches from former New Hampshire Governor Jeanne Shaheen, former Florida Senator Bob Graham, and Warner, a 1980 graduate of Harvard Law School.
