The rumors are swirling [1] regarding George Allen’s expected announcement to run for the Republican nomination for U.S. Senate in 2012.
Jamie Radtke, already an announced candidate, wastes little time in laying down the gauntlet on what her main difference with Allen will be:
“During Senator Allen’s six years in office, he voted for budgets adding $3.1 trillion to our national debt – that’s $16,400 for every second Senator Allen was in office. I disagree with his approach.”
Radtke is proposing a series of monthly debates and town halls between Allen’s entry and the nomination to discuss this and presumably other issues.
