I’m often suspicious of reports like this, but this one seems right. Allen’s irreparably tainted. It’s not hard to imagine the campaign ads featuring video of him calling a brown-skinned man “macaca” and welcoming him to America, or a yearbook picture of him donning a Confederate flag pin, or a snapshot of him with the CCC. That’s a losing candidate—and whether he wins his reelection to the Senate or not, he won’t win the GOP nomination for the presidency in 2008. And we can all breathe a sigh of relief for that.
