From the Save the GOP blog:
"Now, going way back to 1996, Allen defended the pro-life plank in the GOP platform..."
"As best I can tell, Allen has not cast a single pro-choice vote in the four years he’s been a member of the Senate."

And how does the opposition view Allen? This is from Daily Kos:
"George Allen is mighty popular both within the GOP establishment and the grassroots. He is pro-life, close to Bush and Rove, pro-big business, very media savvy, he has the sort of swaggering macho style that appeals to GOP voters (= a clear alpha male persona), he has no former scandals that we know of, lots of experience, he has gone completely under the radar since he came to Washington, he has a very nice looking family, he's from the South etc etc."
"I'm writing this diary because I see George Allen as the only threat among those potential GOP candidates we know of today. This is the guy who will be able to ensure a further slide towards fascism, theocracy and corporate welfare - and selling it to the American people with a big teeth smile."
"So my pledge is: start fighting George Allen already today. Do not underestimate the strongest potential candidate in the Republican party, and don't let Bush hatred give this guy further comfort under the radar of Democratic investigation and attack. Start campaigning already today and we will be well prepared in 2008, when George Allen takes on Hillary or some other Dem in a national campaign."
Looks like you're doing just what The Kossack asked his readers to do, EV...
Your attempt to garner support for Allen based on the lying rantings of some leftwing lunatic is lame. And your insinuation that I'm somehow following his marching orders by pointing out how phony Allen actually is in terms of conservatism is even lamer.
He supports abortion up until viability or brainwaves--or some other arbitrary, man-made standard. Rape and incest babies have no right to life, and neither do babies with fetal abnormalities, according to Allen.
In the Senate, his votes have been carefully catered to the pro-life crowd. But as a House member, Allen felt free to vote pro-choice at least once, in 1992. Back then, it was more "acceptable" to be pro-choice and a Republican.
Since that time, Allen's votes reflect political ambitions, not principled beliefs.
