Yeah, the Senate race in VA is getting pretty ugly. I truly hate when the other side resorts to name calling and tries to use the voting public's bias against a candidate. Along with bringing up the fact that Allen was involved with the confederate flag in some manner, they even brought up the fact that Allen is half jewish, and I have no idea what either issue has to do with what he has done while in office. Maybe the other candidate is trying to say that Allen favors the jews and doesn't like the blacks, but I think that is a long stretch to make. Then again, a significant number of the voters aren't the brightest bulbs in the chandelier and will vote based upon what they see and hear on TV and will not research the issue further.

Me, I cannot stand any of the candidates in Maryland, with maybe the exception of Michael Steele. The fact that both of our Senators voted against making English the official language of the US pisses me off to no end. Not to mention that they are both anti gun and serious liberals.
