i would support allen over guiliani or mccain, that's for sure.
" "Media Shield Law Would Cover Al Qaeda"."
Pence is wrong here, but I'm not sure that one thing disqualifies him. I never heard of this guy before.
Ha, nice catch, didn't even think about that...
A spitton in every classroom....and send all the lefty teachers to tobacco chewing 101.
If it ain't gonna be rudy, I'd prefer a nobody from the midwest - a farmer or maybe a mill worker.. someone who's used to reality..
What I want to know about governors is how is their executive-management and how well do they work with legislatures to get programs passed. What is Mike Pence's experience bewyone the House of Reps?
Sad thing is i think that on alot of these Allen threads its Gipper08 and his brigade bashing Allen that compromises more of the postings than anything else. Heck i'm sure if you counted all the users in the thread and summed up their posts Gipper08's would be in the top 2 everytime. Glad to see someone else noticing that him and the pence brigade just hop onto these threads and pump their candidate while bashing Allen.
I'm open to the idea that she run as the VP candidate, but if that is not appealing to her, but a future run for the Presidency is, then she should go back to California and try to win something there. Maybe she could wait and run for governor in 2010 or challenge Boxer whenever her seat is up again.
For all we know, she may turn out to be a great campaigner, but she may also turn out to be a disaster. Better to test and find out in something other than the biggest election of all.
Psst. George Allen is a lifelong resident of an central east coast state. Sorry to dissapoint.
Nor will he ever give up his chewing tobacco and spittoon, according to an insider

Senator Allen rides Western Star (Wes) at the 'Welcome Home the Troops' rally in Woodstock [Va] on Saturday (10/8).
Thanks for the ping!
*swoon*
He then voted for the legislation giving special rights for gays.

Allen is extremely interesting to watch on TV. Very self possessed, genial, even folksy. But oh my, under that guy next door--hey, get me a beer next time you're up -- exterior is someone else entirely. His brain is working all the time. If he gets the nomination, he'll be hard for the dems to beat. Men will love him, and so will women.
Virginia right?
George Allen could just as well run for the Dems position in the White House as far as I'm concerned. I don't want to ever see him as POTUS!
