Allen's siblings have commented at various times over the years that he was something of a bully toward them. This is not news in Virginia.

This does reflect badly on Allen's character in his youth, but it doesn't disqualify him from holding public office in his 50's.

Jim Webb has waged a campaign of nothing but personal attacks and name-calling. He just can't stand the fact that Allen is fighting back.

what stupid stuff people did as kids shouldn't be an issue at all

I would hate to run for office and have my little brother tell voters that I used to give him wedgies or that one time we shot a neighbor with a BB gun

Allen being rough with his siblings is no different and isn't even worth worrying about

As the youngest of 4, my brothers are very lucky that I never wrote a book about how they used me as target practice when my parents bought them bb guns, or how they shot bottle rockets at me, again using me as target practice.

Allen's sister has alterior motives....much like Patty Davis when she wrote her book about her father, Ronaldus Maximus.
