George Allen announced on Hannity last week that he was going to run. I think he will win because he has a head start. He has national name recognition and a power house for raising money.
My pick is that Allen will win big.
Allen was a conservative back in the day, but that was well before the Tea Party hit the political scene like a tsunami and honed the meaning of ‘conservative’ to a sharper point. He’s already being called to account for some ‘big government’ spending votes on his record. There is a strong tea party candidate raising lots of money from what I hear ..... I don’t think a head start for Allen is going to be enough to win easily or big. Really nice guy, but unless he’s been taking boxing lessons and is willing to take the gloves off in this current political environment, I don’t think he’s tough enough for the job.
If Kaine is the rat candidate, he beats Allen. Kaine has got a huge machine behind him.
