the “how the mighty have fallen” files: poor, poor george allen

First he was caught on tape calling a person of color a “macaca.” Then, there was that picture of him and the white supremacists, and the allegations that he often used the n-word. Not a good thing for the Republican frontrunner for President in ’08. He might still have won his bid for re-election to the Senate, though, if not for the “shocking” revelation that he was a Jew (audible gasp)! It seems that while those on the far right can look the other way when confronted by stories of a young Allen stuffing the head of a dead deer into the mailbox of a black family, there are some things which just cannot be tolerated… Fortunately for the people of Virginia, it looks like there’s a good man ready to take his place.
