Allen blew up a lead of 20 points and lost to Webb in a contest most Dems did not expect to win anway.

It was a disastrous run for relection and a text book example of how not to run for office. Blaming it on Bush etc doesn’t wash.

Allen is a spent politician and the GOP bench in VA has a lot of other fresh talent to take that seat back.

That’s the issue, isn’t it? We’ll see.

Yep, you got it about right, Allen had his chance. He needs to stay on the porch this time out.
