Well it's obvious the Times Union is in the tank for Webb, if it were the other way around, they would be arguing that "Webb's service to the Nation demonstrates that he is above any sort of bias or bigotry."
But put that (R) after the candidates name?
It's SATAN! *RUN* !!!!!
What are Mr. Allen's stances on things such as abortion, islam, israel, china, and federal power?
So if you insult anyone at all, you can't be President? I guess they've re-written the Constitution to include that little caveat.
So who does that leave as an eligible candidate? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?
Hard to imagine the Times Union will have a whole lot of influence down here in Virginia.
Its not the Senate seat that the media cares about. It is Allens run in 2008. They are setting up the base to destroy him.
The left should beware of the law of unintended consequences. If they force the issue too hard it will turn and bit them just like the culture of corruption and countless other ploys. It must be sad when all your party has to offer is cheap name calling and we're not Bush. Not a positive plan in sight from the dems.
Dear George,
As a former constituant of yours may I suggest, if you really wish to be a contender for the oval office, find yourself a hooker .... get drunk with her .... drive past the Washington Press Corp and ditch the speeding auto into the Potomac.
"There are white n*****s. I've seen a lot of white n*****s in my time. I'm going to use that word."
When will ANY liberal paper write a scathing editorial about Kleagle Byrd's racist remark?
Yes, we need him to win his Senate seat.
But this is a perfect example of why he's unsuitable as a Presidential candidate.
Oh, Darn, Allen again? I thought that this was going to be about Biden or Clinton.

"The Allen campaign, trying to stomp out the furor, explained defensively that the candidate had merely mangled the word Mohawk, a nickname he said his staff had given Sidarth to reflect the shaved sides of his unusual haircut..."
This could be one of the most moronic responses from any campaign, republican or democrat.... I mean give me a friggin' break...
I didn't know the audience consisted only of French Tunisians - after all, as the writer says, only those of French Tunisian ancestry would know what "macaca" is.
They always do! Yet another example of the piercing double standard on race used by liberals. I swear they live to sniff out any statement of racial contention to use to bludgeon a Republican with. At the same time, guys like Sen. Bryd are referred to as "the conscience of the Senate". Balderdash!
I'm originally from Albany and the Times Union is a bigger liberal rag than the Washington Post. In fact, they basically take all their articles from the WashPo and reprint them.
There aren't enough words or time.
I suspect you're cheering this evil and dishonest cheapest of cheap shots on a fine conservative.
perhaps we should say all newspapers have "kaa kaa" brains.
I really wish we could find a way to ge to the advertisers of these local papers.
Advertisers need to learn that supporting such left wing absurdity COSTS them business because we the consumers spread the word that advertiser X supports a left wing paper.
