THere was a thread a while back where he got VERY VERY beligerent and started accusing everyone of being a moron and starting shooting off personal insults like a kos kid. It got so out of line a few of us reported him to the mods on that one. The thing about MikeA is that his primary target seems to always be Allen(when it comes to 2008).

You are right htough about the libs seeing Allen as their biggest threat. They all know that if mccain wins the primary, they'll unload keating 5 nonstop and all this talk about him being too old, too senile/etc. McCain gains favorability becuase the media sells him to indies and liberals. The day they turn on him so will those people. An ex gf of mine was a flaming liberal, but she used to LOVE mccain. I asked her why and its because she legitimately believed him to be much more liberal than he actually was and when i explained some of his positions she changed her mind about him and saw him as just another opportunistic politician. Mccainiacs fail to see this. In order for Mccain to win the 2008 primary, he will have to veer right, and in doing so he looses that maverick/liberal senator thing that would pull alot of those votes(same for rudy). Essentially we'd be running bob dole redux, a tired old man who thinks its his turn.

As for Rudy, that man is too liberal to win the primary, too many mistresses, and is just a pandoras box of scandals.

Allen instilles fear in the left and they know he can win. They know they can beat mccain and rudy b/c of their scandals and a divided republican party. Dems are so scared of ALlen that there trying desperately hard to take him out in Virginia and are even asking him to resign his Senate seat. They even tried to get the NFL commisioner to give him the job. If that doesnt scream fear i dont know what does.

Not to mention they attack him at every chance they get as he travels the country.

The thing about MikeA is that his primary target seems to always be Allen(when it comes to 2008).

Yeah, I unleashed personal attacks but you're agreeing with a guy who called me a "Clinton plant." Great hypocrisy there pal.

And my primary target is Allen precisely because he is not up to the task of running for president. The man got stomped by a half wit like Barbara Boxer for crap's sake!!! Will you people get over your adolescent adoration of a man just because he says "Reagan" a lot?? I'm the one trying to save the GOP from itself by running an empty suit! You all are helping the GOP to make the same mistake the Dems. did in 2004 for by running an undistinguished, mostly unknown outside the base Senator lacking in charisma or ability to connect with voters. At least Kerry had some ability to articulate the Democrats' agenda and to stick up for it when it was attacked by his opponents, unlike Allen who just squints at the camera and then goes back to his script.

You have to remember that general election voters are not like GOP base voters. Just because you see Allen as being some great custodian of conservatism does not mean that will appeal to general election voters.

So if you want to have a civil debate about this great, let's have it. If you want to make it all about me then I'm already bored. But apparently some of you are so intolerant of differing views within the GOP that you have to call others "Clinton plants" or accuse them of making personal attacks they didn't make.
