George Allen continues to insist he wants a campaign focused on the issues. Meanwhile, the campaign he's actually running can't seem to stay out of the gutter (much like his mouth). A friend of mine in Virginia was called by Central Research testing messages for the Allen campaign. Among the questions:
Who is a better family man?
It's a strange question for someone planning to campaign on the issues. It's no secret that Webb has been married before, as has his wife Hong Le.
So where is Allen going with this? He's shown his willingness to make ridiculous character attacks since the campaign began. But after the Foley mess, it would be amazing to see a Republican go on the attack with family values. Let's hope Webb's family is spared from whatever nonsense the Allen campaign is cooking up for the last few weeks.
