About a year ago I was so sure that Allen was going to be the ‘08 GOP presidential nominee vs. former Va. Gov.Mark Warner for the Dems.
Missed this one .....
But W’s speech at the VFW convention was awesome! Did you catch it? Looking for the transcript.
I heard parts of it- he sounded very strong this morning from the little I heard..
George Allen lost by a few thousand votes in a state that has been trending Democrat, in a year that was hell on the GOP across the board, after Allen made two relatively minor mistakes in a long campaign.
That razor-thin defeat followed, and was likely the result of, an over one year campaign of distortion against Allen by the WashPost front page blowing the mistakes out of proportion and bringing in stories of alleged college comments by Allen from 30 years earlier. The only comparably vicious campaign that I’ve seen the WashPost run was against Ollie North in 1994, where the Post recycled fraudulent Lyndon Larouche slanders against North on the Post front page.
Holding a narrow defeat against Allen (or North) is not a good idea. Allen, like North, is a good guy and a thousand times better than RINO John Warner.
... or blustery windbag Jim Webb.
When I hear or see Webb’s name, I think of that Navy expression, “loose cannon on deck.”
VA was trending Dem in local elections during the 1980s (remember Chuck Robb and Doug Wilder?), but swung back in the 1990s. I think that the swing vote in all elections will be the folks in the DC exurbs. Even back in the 80s, as the independents went, so did Virginia.
the washington COMpost is GARBAGE imVho.
