If true this is dumb. Allen should be stressing the positive re his positions, not rooting through Webb's novels - which are pretty damn good, actually - for laughable excerpts. Frontrunners don't need to do desperate crap like this.

I'm sorry Webb's chosen to go over to the dark side, but that doesn't negate his talents as a writer, which are considerable.

Webb's writings are mostly turgid crap sprinkled with lurid--sometimes pedophilic--sex.

So Allen's the bad guy, huh?

You people are un-believeable.

I would agree with you if it hadn't been for the macacca(sp) incident. If Webb would have stood up then, I wouldn'd be laughing him down now.

I can't comment on Webb's literary abilities, but it seems he uses sex primarily for shock value. He sticks to the bizarre.

Child porn scenes are not worth the electorate's attention? I beg to differ.

Your right. Kerry campaign tried this with Mrs. Lynn Cheney who wrote some disgusting lesbians scenes in her books and that did not work. This should not have been done.

Aside from the kiddie porn, he's a great writer. Wuh-hut?

How true, and it will probably do a lot for Webb's book sales besides, improve his financial position. Who said, any publicity is good publicity.
