is this the same geo allen
that imploded
to the joy of democraps
in 2006?
sooooo-eeee.
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.
