First, what's up with the title? "Allen priority is re-election in Va." Oh, really? Well, he might say so, but his recent itinerary shows otherwise. A more accurate title: "Allen claims his priority is re-election in Va."
Second, how about challenging him on at least one issue? How about asking him about his flip-flop on hate crimes? His incosistencies on abortion? His vote to increase the debt ceiling? The reporter didn't ask Allen one tough question.
Third, how about a follow up question? When asked vaguely about Iraq, Allen lays all the blame on the Iraqis. How about a follow-up about the failures of the administration? Six generals didn't call for Rumsfeld's resignation for nothing.
This was simply a fluff piece that lacked any serious value, unfortunately. Hopefully, Allen will submit to some serious interviews in the future.
