Many are questioning whether Larry Sabato's issued, then modified, then somewhat-withdrawn accusations against Sen. Allen amount to Sabato unmasking himself as a democrat partisan, posing as an impartial observer.

I can add one new fact that I have personal knowledge of, one that is somewhat curious, and potentially relevant.

Here it is: the person that Allen referred to as "Macaca", the person who was stalking the Allen campaign, is one of Sabato's students, in Sabato's class at UVA. I don't know whether this fact has been disclosed anywhere.

Hmmmmmmm.............

I may be dense but I still believe Zabato is trying to be fair. He misunderstands much of what he does and he fails to realize how he's being used. But. I am not convinced he's doing any of this as a partisan hack.

I have a little inside baseball on this. The guy became a student after the controversy. Though the way he did so is rather interesting.

Sabato's PoliSci classes are so in demand that prospective students have to write an entrance essay in order to be considered for the class. While other students slaved away at their keyboards, the student in question did a little less work. He simply turned in an "essay" composed entirely of this one sentence: "I am macaca."

He was accepted into the class...
