Right, you are from New Jersey and you know all about George Allen and Virginia.

I lived in Virginia for 22 years, including while George Allen was Governor. I attended an event at a public housing development in Alexandria for a candidate for the general assembly, at which George Allen spoke passionately and movingly of his commitment ot end poverty and help people own homes. Afterward he spoke cordially and worked the crowd which was entirely African American. He did not have to do this, and there were no TV cameras there, but he did it because he believed it. I had forgotten about it until all this stuff came up, and now I am pissed off.

You may not believe it, but there are actually conservative Republicans in Virginia who are not racist! And you don't have to be a redneck or act like one to get elected in Virginia. People pushing this story are ignorant and bigoted themselves, about how modern Southerners think and vote. We know the truth about George Allen. And we also know the truth about the sleazy liberals who are behind this outrageous, unprecedented smear campaign.

I am here to be educated, and , seriously, thank you.
I know all about smear campaigns, having lived through 8 years of the reign of Bubba Clinton. I wish though, once and for all, someone would throw the charges forcefully back into the faces of the accuser and expose them for what they are. Even though I may wind up favoring some other candidate over Allen, I have an absolutely bottomless appetite for exposing the thuggish Left, if indeed (as I am finding out)that's the pedigree of Allen's accuser.So once again, as with the others on this thread who have gently flamed me, I thank you.

If his sister is to be believed (which might be iffy), his mother seems like a real prize:

"According to Jennifer Allen, their mother "prided herself for being un-American. ... She was ashamed that she had given up her French citizenship to become a citizen of a country she deemed infantile."
