4. Unfortunately, Allen's bigoted |

supporters will cheer their boy even more for saying this. Let's just hope there are enough people in Virginia who find this crap abhorrent to oust this asshat from office.

6. Maybe I'm too jaded . . |
|
. . . but (with the exception of Northern Virginia) is this really going to hurt him in VIRGINIA?
If there are any Virginia DUers out there, please prove me wrong. Please?

And I don't believe it will hurt him except...as you point out in NoVa.
He's a racist, ignorant, well dressed redneck, but he's OUR racist, ignorant, well dressed redneck. People in Virginia seem to be more concerned with uppity black folks who don't know their place and the demise of the confederate flag.
Still, we elected a Dem Gov this go-round, so there is always a glimmer of hope.

Sadly, this won't hurt him. I have seen Virginians object to negative campaign ads but not to racism.

it'll hurt him in parts of Virginia, the northern counties and some of the other urban areas but that's about it. I suspect it'll be a non-issue in the rural parts...

Wish I could say I was surprised, this is the same man who used to have a noose hanging in his office after all (along with the Traitor Flag).

10. And you know what's so sad about this? |
|
Douglas Wilder, first black governor of VA, is purportedly friends with Allen.

8. Looks like we will have some fun with this, but I think it will |
|
not make much difference with republicans because they see anyone that isn't white or in their social class as subhuman.

19. Unfortunately we can't say bye to him yet. |

From what I've seen of polls and what other DUers have said, Felix is probably going to win this one. :cry:

14. Once a racist, always a racist.... |

this will play well with the xenophobic fundies in certain parts of the state, not so well in NOVA, where he's already running behind.

The really sad part is that Allen is dumber then a box of rocks. I doubt that you would ever see him at a mensa meeting yet people in Virginia particularly in the southwest part of the state fall for his fake southern accent and his fake ah shucks persona. As a life long Virginian he sickens me. I have to turn the tv down whenever he starts talking.
