Allen Adviser: ‘Sen. Allen Does Not Want to Drag This Out’
ABC News’ Teddy Davis Reports: A senior adviser who has spoken with Sen. George Allen (R-VA) tells ABC News: "Sen. Allen does not want to drag this out. At the conclusion of the recanvassing, Sen. Allen is going to make remarks in Virginia."
The exact location of Sen. Allen’s remarks is yet to be determined; about 50 percent of the recanvassing is thought to be complete at this time. This Allen adviser believes that Sen. Allen’s comments could come "mid- to late-afternoon."
Sen. Allen’s staff is monitoring the progress of the recanvassing through its field staff.
If former Reagan Navy Secretary Jim Webb prevails in the Virginia Senate race as the Associated Press has predicted he will, Democrats will take control of the Senate.

What an original comment. Thos e who cannot formulate or articulate an intelligent response must take the old fall back position of name calling. I would write more, but it’s time for recess.

Bern Murray must be one of those”my poop does not smell” elitists!
Elitists don’t fool the citizens of the Commonwealth either.

I want to personally welcome Allen to the “real world” of Virginia and the United States. The ‘macaca’ comment was his undoing. It revealed the true character of an angry and racist man. But it looks like the joke is on him. None of his desperate tactics worked. Perhaps he should go to a zoo and hang out with the macaque monkeys.

Allen’s undoing was his belief that by trashing gays and making fun of minorities, he would earn the love of Virginia’s citizens. Unfortunately for him, I guess he didn’t realize that younger people, even if they were born in Virginia and residents of the Northern part of the state, recognize a bigot and doushebag when they see and weren’t willing to wink, nod and pull the lever in his favor!

Hey Georgy Boy Allen,
Welcome to the Real World,
Welcome to Virginia,
Welcome to USA!!
I am waiting with abated breath , when you will launch your ill fated Presidential Campaign, because I and a few hundred Republican friends of mine will go on Hunger strike, at Times Square, when you do that.
As I said , with abated breath,
with Tons of Love,
your Indian American Friend for ever,
Krishna
