A blip due to bad press, or has Allen's big mouth put yet another Republican Senate seat in serious jeopardy? Stay tuned.
He certainly put an end to any talk of him running for President.
All will be forgotten by the time 2008 rolls around.
I read elsewhere that the DNC decided to take a pass on this contest and would not be funding Webb.
If they change their mind, we'll know the polls are showing Allen slipping are real.
Not if Allen loses.
Those polls are a buncha MACACA!!!!!
One gaffe by itself doesn't finish him, but it does suggest that he isn't ready for primetime.
He's not going to lose.
Dumb-a$$...
These polls are garbage at this point in time. In a month, the phony/hyped bad press will have fizzed out.
I hopeyou are right, but won't count on it. Allen had this seat won, but the press couldn't handle that, so made a big deal over the macaca business. Allen and his campaign didn't respond properly, either. With his background, even I don't buy that he didn't know what the word meant and how it was used ... if he were smart he'd have said that was what his mother always called him as a kid who kept bugging her.
I agree.
Probably locked up 2008 for McCain.
Crimson, and knocks him out as a VP candidate also. But in reality after Allen is reelected he will serve out his 6 year term. If he ran in 2008 and won we would lose his Senate seat due to DEM governor Kaine. Did'nt Jim WEBB make some crude Jewish jokes to his primary opponent Harris Miller also???
And somebody needs to tell him to shave those G-D mini-sideburns he's sporting. Everytime I see them I wince. Just what's he trying to prove? That he's "hip"? *Sigh*
If Allen goes down the tubes, I am on board the Rudy wagon (assuming he runs). National Security is the overarching issue of our generation and we simply cannot afford to leave that in the hands of an appeasing, defeatist 'Rat.
The liberal media has regained control of all the peoples' information sources.
We're just sheep again.
Let's hope he can win the Senate.
Give it another week, it will work out.
Plus, this is a SUSA poll.
Its not every day that you have a national publication run two attack stories on a candidate. I havent seen the compost run any such stories on Web and his buddies.
