Jim Miklaszewski said on Imus this morning that the books won't make a difference in the election.

Probably because the media in this country won't give it one tenth the exposure it would have, had Webb been a Republican.

Webb is a creep. People in Virginia aren't going to vote for that.

The Dems will come up with a note Allen passed to a girl in 10th grade and the MSM will cover that not this.

They talked about this on "Fox & Friends" this morning.
To: Dr. Scarpetta
The books have been out for quite a while. Allen's campaign site isn't mentioning this, either, in the press release section.
If spun correctly, it could possibly be an issue, but it's not groundbreaking since it's been "out there" for so long, it my end up looking like a hail mary play to bury Webb once and for all, even though it's not really needed judging by the polls. Hopefully it won't backfire.

Jim Miklaszewski said on Imus this morning that the books won't make a difference in the election.Begala was on earlier and spinning this as just novel writing. Notwithstanding the "let's just blow this off" reaction of the "elites", the things Webb wrote have a huge ewwwww factor that will bother the voters. They certainly bother me.

The morning show on the Richmond talk powerhouse WRVA dismissed it today as an Allen "diatribe" and didn't mention the underage/incest/gay angle.
To: Dr. Scarpetta
I guess Jim hasn't read the excerpt. When I read it, I was sickened. I hope everyone with moral decency in Virginia knows what he wrote because it is plain SICK!!!
In fact, I think Webb should drop out of the race.

Abraham Lincoln said it first: "Turn about is fair play". If the Democrats want to get into the mud, they should expect some flung their way in return. They want to go on about Foley, Webb is fair game.

they're NOVELS. What about the pedophilia aspect?

Jim Miklaszewski said on Imus this morning that the books won't make a difference in the election.If I lived in Virginia this would absolutely motivate me to get out and vote AGAINST Webb. I think Miklaszewski has misread this one.

Novels that perhaps Webb would like to see in Pub Ed Libraries? Used as curriculae "fiction books" in College Freshmen required courses?

Ummm, not that I support him, but they're NOVELS. It's pornography. Is it acceptable to have a senator who is an author of pornography?
