- This is what I posted as a comment on Republitarian's site:
My guess is, Webb was from of the Kilpatrick-Perle piece of the 1980 (and '84) Reaganite coalition: liberal on nearly everything except national security.
Now, to be fair, Mrs. Kilpatrick has moved rightward on other issues over the years, and Perle has for the most part stayed silent on them. Webb, unlike Perle, is a dove on Iraq, so back he goes to the Dems.
One worry for Allen backers: Webb is one of the few folks out there who talked about Communist China's support for terrorism (yeah, I would notice that), although he has been quiet on it this year (and Allen's record on the ChiComs is d*mn good).
My guess is Webb wins the primary, and the resulting $$$ diverted into the race means victory for . . . Rick Santorum.
As for this race . . . ????

- I should note I wrote that before I saw the latest Rasmussen poll on this race, which has Allen 20+ ahead of either Miller or Webb.
My predictive abilities on U.S. races has never, ever, been good.
