"But Hillary Clinton cannot beat George Allen. That's why they are out in force trying to damage him this year. It is that simple."
I've been hoping for an Allen/Rice ticket because it is (or "was") unbeatable buy Hitlery.
George Allen is going to have to get some serious coaching and advice about how to handle the smear campaigns, because they will come fast and furious if he remains a runner.
Look on the bright side, of all the '08 candidates allen is getting a sample of what the media will throw at them in '08. This way he'll be ready and the others will not. Better him learn how to deal with the entire media assault now than in '08.
