OK, it was a lousy race back in 2006 that Mr. Allen ran. But I am still stupified that uttering the word “macaca” is what slammed the door behind him.

Macaca!!!!!!!!!

Yea, if only he didn’t utter that word we would have an actual conservative to rally around.

But I am still stupified that uttering the word “macaca” is what slammed the door behind him.

"Macaca" was part of it, but I honestly think more people were offended by his comment "Welcome to the real Virginia, the real America" (or whatever his exact words were. It was kind of like he only thought the people in that small town were "real" and the rest of the commonwealth shouldn't count. Allen may disagree with the values of the voters in the "unreal" places like the DC suburbs, but you can't get elected without them. Stupid political blunder proving he was not ready for prime time.
