Today the United States Senate passed President Bush's immigration reform bill, which will strengthen border security, and institute a guest-worker program. John McCain (R) AZ, Chuck Hagel (R) NE, Sam Brownback (R) KS, and Bill Frist (R) TN - all possible contenders for the Republican Nomination in 2008, supported this bill, but George Allen, True Conservative, stayed with the far right of his party, and cried against the bill. It remains to be seen how this will affect his chances in the General, but thisSenator George Allen (R-VA)
behavior will make him the darling of the far-right - a.k.a. Jerry Falwell & Co. A risky political move it may be, but only gamblers make it to the oval office.
