According to an article in today's New York Times, "George Allen makes little secret that he is bored with life in the Senate." According to Allen, "I made more decisions in half a day as governor than you can make in a whole week in the Senate. It's too slow for me."
Uh, George? I know this is likely to strain your analytical and logical reasoning abilities, but please try to stay with me here. You're bored with the Senate. It's too slow for you. Yet you're running for re-election to that boring, mind-numbing place. Why? Don't you have anything better to do with you life? How about a job in the private sector, which you love so much? Why not let another Republican, let's say Jim Gilmore for example, run for Senate if you're so bored with it? Can you please explain your seeming contradiction in logic? Thank you for your prompt answers, as always! (ok, maybe when you get back from Iowa, or New Hampshire, or South Carolina, or wherever the heck you are running for....er...Senate, yeah!).
