Senator Warner appeared on MSNBC's "Andrea Mitchell Reports" this afternoon to discuss the need for Congress to stay focused on re-booting the sluggish economy.

Unemployment numbers released today showed an unexpected drop to a five-month low, and Senator Warmer said that even more needs to be done to help small businesses that are struggling:

"We've got to do more. But at the end of the day, while the government can do certain things, the most important creator of new jobs is going to be the private sector, particularly small businesses."

He also discussed some of his frustrations with the partisanship and occasional hypocrisy seen on Capitol Hill and said he would continue to work for bipartisan cooperation.  You can watch the entire interview below:
