Allen has a wide libertarian streak that gets him in hot water with conservatives sometimes........he decided to take the conservative position as opposed to the libertarian one.
The important thing is he's with us now.
As far as I'm concerned having a wide libertarian streak is being conservative. Keeping the government small and off our backs ...unlike a segment of FR's who call themselves conservatives but in reality are obsessed with gays and abortion and care much less about spending and the obscene size of our government If Allen has a libertarian streak well good for him.
But I guess y'all will get his mind right. Why worry about the budget..the borders,,,articulating a conservative vision .....the WOT ....when there are queers out there.

Why worry about the budget..the borders,,,articulating a conservative vision .....the WOT The issues you list are vitally important. We were being asked about Allen's positions on the moral issues and were responding to those questions. No one meant to imply that the areas you list aren't critical.
His 2006 re-election website was just launched this week and I'm hoping his staff will continue to add more detailed information regarding policy. You should find some helpful information there regarding stances on issues nonetheless.
As regards immigration, you may have seen this article posted earlier: George Allen Splits with Bush on Immigration .
Another source of information is his U.S. Senate site

Who was it that you were pushing for a few weeks ago?
Was it Rudy or McCain? It was one of those dingbats.
You don't like Allen, fine, but explain what the hell it is you want in a candidate?
If you are wanting the Republican nominee to embrace queer marriage you will be out of luck.
