From yesterday's Richmond Times Dispatch for anyone concerned that no one outside of the conservative movement and Virginia knows George Allen.....

"Allen has gotten mention in news reports beyond Iowa, New Hampshire, and Virginia recently. He has been speaking out not only against judicial filibusters but also in support of John R. Bolton, Bush's nominee for ambassador to the United Nations, and on other matters.

"Between May 22 and mid-Friday (5/27), there were 112 individual articles that mentioned Allen; 35 on Wednesday alone; and Associated Press articles mentioning him were picked up by 340 newspapers Wednesday, Thursday and Friday."

Sounds like good national coverage to me.

Yes it does. I need to retract my speculation that Allen is not being forthcoming about his positions. It's just that the national stage is a small one, and a person, even one as prominent as Sen. Allen, can only edge onto it slowly, unless they are a beknighted Lefty of course.
