Please see the documentation below, Jim Webb is under very heavy attack now from the "big guns" of the national extreme right wing media!
Right below is NewsMax devoting an entire section of their website to try and defend George Allen, below that is a Sean Hannity blogger attacking Jim Webb (and ending his post with the arrogant quote "Peace through superior firepower," and below that is Rush Limbaugh trying to defend George Allen. All of this is just from Wednesday, September 27!
I also heard Sean Hannity say on Tuesday, September 26 that he was worried about George Allen on his radio program to Fred Barnes when they were talking. Hannity sounded very worried in my opinion and he will probably be mobilizing his listening base to try and help Allen on a national level. Hannity also talked about this race on Hannity & Colmes on Wednesday night!
You can expect to see many big name and heavy hitters from the national Neocon media unleash their full wrath and fury (the gates of hell) on Jim Webb and mobilize their base to try and protect George Allen as much as they can because Allen is their poster boy for President in 2008 who they do not want to lose in 2006!
Here is credible documentation to verify my claim that George Allen is the Neocon GOP poster boy for President in 2008:
Analysis and Documentation: George Allen is already the GOP 2008 "front-runner!"
NEWS & ANALYSIS: George Allen launches Senate bid / How to defeat Allen in 2006!
The Webb/Allen Virginia Senate race has a lot on the line for 2008 and is a key race in my opinion. Jim Webb defeating George Allen now in 2006 will not only replace a Bush rubber stamp vote in the Senate now with a thinking voice but it will also knock out a major player for President in 2008 who is even more extreme than Bush is in my opinion. That is why I like to describe George Allen as being "Bush-Heavy!"
Because so much is on the line in this race for 2008, I would like to encourage everyone in every state who is not working on a campaign now and who is on the sidelines to please get active and do whatever you can to help Jim Webb since he is coming under such a heavy national attack from Rush Limbaugh and by the national extreme right wing media!
Rush Limbaugh and the national extreme right wing media have stayed out of this race for the most part when they thought that Allen would easily win but they are getting involved now because this race is truly competitive, they are worried, and they want to protect their poster boy for 2008!
That means George Allen will get a lot of media help from them, a lot of campaign contributions from the Neocon GOP activist base, and even a lot of volunteer help from Rush Limbaugh's listening base of well over 20 million people!
George Allen also has MANY extreme right wing Virginia bloggers helping him and who are attacking Jim Webb on top of what Rush Limbaugh and the other big name national media Neocons are doing! Here are just a few examples of them:
You can help Jim Webb in any state by contributing money or your time. It is very easy to help Jim Webb with just your time alone if you have the time to give regardless of where you live! Please open up this link to see how you can make phone calls from anywhere in the country to help Jim Webb:

This is also posted on Gen. Wes Clark's blog where there are some additional comments:

Jim Webb: Racist, Sexist, Bigoted Homophobe!
What more is there to say? He is an admitted racist who thinks women are inferior and gays are a disgrace to the military. Anyone who could vote for a racist, sexist, bigoted homophobe must be one too.

Despicable Allen Smear Will Backfire
September 27, 2006
BEGIN TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Here's John in Cleveland. I'm glad you called, sir. Welcome to the program.
CALLER: Thank you, sir. Thanks for taking my call.
RUSH: You bet.
CALLER: Well, you know, I was calling about Governor Allen, but before I get to that, sir, I just wanted to say thank you for the piece that you talked about from the Tuesday Morning Quarterback about the gamma radiation burst. I shared that with several individuals, and it gives them a refocus about how small and insignificant we truly are out there and that there is a God that does protect us.
RUSH: True. That's exactly right. It was a great piece by Gregg Easterbrook.
CALLER: Yes, sir. But about Senator Allen, I live in Cleveland because I'm in the Marine Corps, but I'm a resident of the state of Virginia and have voted in every election since I've been eligible to vote and have voted for Mr. Allen quite a few times. And he's just been a great help to the state of Virginia, and it's sad to see them tear him down like this, to be brought to this. It's ridiculous. He repealed the personal property tax to a point where it was accessible and able to be paid by most individuals and tried to bring it all the way down to nothing, but he had to fight a Democratic controlled legislature and was unable to do so. He has just been so supportive of the citizens, and the citizens of him, to see this happen to him is just despicable.
RUSH: Well, you're exactly right. It's despicable, but it's typical. Look, when I say this to people I think they think I don't take this stuff seriously. It's unconscionably despicable. But, folks, come on, it's who they are. This is what the Democrats do. Now, this would involve the N-word, and when somebody starts challenging you on that, when they try to peg you a racist, you can't let that stand, and Allen hasn't. You have to fire back. But what else do they do but smear people, folks?
Now, honestly, do you hear anybody debating ideas with George Allen? Every time Allen has debated James Webb, it is clear that Webb is not a Virginian, doesn't know Virginia history, and policies, when they actually get discussed, make it clear that Allen is superior in that field. Democrats can't let that happen. They know they're going to lose on policy debates, ideological debates, idea debates, so what do they do? Smear. It's all they do. Examine the timeline of this. How long has George Allen been serving his country, his state? I mean, he's been in public life long enough to have been an assemblyman, a governor, a congressman, and a senator. And in all of that time there hasn't been one such complaint, other than the guy likes the Confederate flag, which is another smear attempt. Now all of a sudden here comes a guy from 17 years ago, how many years ago when Allen played football somewhere, that said he used N-word and that he said that black people eat turtles and all of this absurd stuff.
Now, people in Virginia, and like you ex-Virginians who now live elsewhere are just as outraged by this as any of the rest of us are. You know, I got several e-mails from people yesterday, "How come you didn't take on this Allen business?" Well, because I mentioned it a little bit on Monday, but, frankly, even the networks are beginning to run that. This is Allen being railroaded. They have overshot again. They have gone way over the line. Started with Macaca, couldn't let go of that. It's still around. Now the N-word. If fits a pattern. And believe me, folks, there are far many millions more Americans who recognize that pattern and are disgusted by it, today, than even six years ago, ten years, and certainly 20 years ago.
You know, Jim Webb, somebody asked him, have you ever used the N-word? And he said, "Well, I don't think there's anybody who grew up around the south that hasn't had the word pass their lips at one time or another." So what we have here is George Allen denying he said the N-word and Jim Webb all but admitting that he did say and has uttered it. Is the media making any hay out of this? No, this is not the agenda, it's not the template. Allen's first wife is denying he ever said that African-Americans eat turtles, and there aren't any independent witnesses to corroborate any of these allegations made in that Salon.com piece or a New York Times article about Allen and the N-word. Then there's this ridiculous charge that Allen put a deer's head in a black family's mailbox. Have you heard that one? Two Louisa County sheriffs deputies who were on the force in the early 1970s said in interviews on Tuesday that they don't recall any complaints about severed animal heads. Nobody remembers any such thing. Now, one of these two named accusers, a guy named Christopher Taylor, is a registered Democrat. He opposes Allen's election. The other, a guy who got all this started, is a guy named Ken Shelton. A registered Democrat up until 2004 -- he's the guy, by the way, that made the deer head allegation. A lot of people that were on Allen's football team have come to his defense, including Reverend Gary Hamm, who is a black minister.
Now, this is so over the top, it is so over the top, it's going to backfire. Mark my words. It's already starting to when networks are starting to ask the question, Is Allen Being Railroaded? You know, if you're going to start charging people with these kinds of things, they better look like they're capable of it. They better have a track record that's identifiable. You're going to run around and paint George Allen as a racist or a guy who says black people eat turtles or stuffing dead deer heads in people's mailboxes, you better make sure that the guy you're accusing looks sleazy enough to do this kind of stuff. And they don't, because they're still living in the old days where they think they dominate and control the media, and once they say it, it takes on a life of its own that cannot be refuted.
Let me tell you who I've really lost a lot of respect for in this, and that's a guy who up to now has been portrayed as a great independent thinking political scientist and analyst at the University of Virginia, Larry Sabato. What Larry Sabato has done in this situation to me is unconscionable. He has essentially repeated hearsay and repeated hearsay as gospel and has used his good offices, his reputation to back it up. His comments have just caught me totally off guard. Aside from the fact that Sabato in recent years in predicting the outcomes of elections has not really been that accurate, he still enjoyed a certain degree of credibility in terms of his independent political analysis. Here's what he said about his personal knowledge of George Allen's alleged use of a racial slur. Quote, "I'm simply going to stay with what I know is the case, and the fact is he did use the N-word whether he's denying it or not."
Well, a reader to the PowerLine blog, John Farmer, sent Sabato an e-mail to press him on the question of his personal knowledge about Allen using the N-word: "I believe you need to make a clearer statement to the press regarding your claim that George Allen used the N-word. That's about the most damaging political charge you can make in today's environment. If the media reports your comment correctly, and you claim to know that he used it, fairness requires you cite your evidence, otherwise Mr. Allen's denied the opportunity to confront and examine the person making the claim."
Sabato's staff responded with the following e-mail message that Sabato had sent earlier in response to other inquiries. Sabato: "I didn't know these things until the past few months. People I know and who are very credible contacted me and shared the stories, then reporters checked them out. I'm not a reporter. Based on everything they learned, they believe the stories, and so do I. Other things will determine the election, though."
This is irresponsible! He got used. Mr. Sabato, you were used. You just heard about this a few months ago, somebody calling you up? Where has this been for 20 years? Where has this been for 15 years? It is outrageous. But the nature and the over-the-top characteristics of this outrage are such, folks, that it is going to backfire big time. And at the same time, it's going to take whole Macaca thing down the toilet and the drain with it as well, because they overplayed that, and Allen is going to emerge from this with his dignity and his character intact. It's ridiculous and rotten that people have to go through this, but everybody in public life does at some point. Well, not everybody. The people on the right do. Republicans, conservatives, on the right go through this constantly, and there are any number of ways of dealing with it, which we have discussed. Allen doesn't have a three-hour radio show to deal with it every day. He has to deal with it in the context of his campaign. It's a little easier for some than others to actually refute and deal with these kind of things.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Let me put this thought out there, uh, ladies and gentlemen, something to think about. How often do you turn on television, go to the movies, and hear either comedians or characters in movies using the N-word? You can't watch any of these cable comedy shows without hearing the word all over the place used by black comics and so forth. I continually, you know, when I watch movies or television shows, DVDs or what have you, I routinely remain stunned by the stereotyped characters in many movies that blacks are assigned by our tolerant and understanding liberal left in Hollywood -- pimps, drug runners, criminals of some nature -- and they all use the N-word, in written scripts, written joke monologs.
It wasn't long ago that the National Basketball Association, players association, actually asked the league to decriminalize the -- you won't believe this -- the word MF because it's just used too much on the court. It's a part of what goes on in the basketball game and fans sit so close they can hear it and of course they're coming down on the players for using it. No, no, no. Of course the league didn't go along with this, naturally. But is it time maybe to change the way we look at the N-word and stop making it a crime? I'm just throwing it out there, because that's the root of this. It is used by the left exclusively to smear and ruin Republicans and conservatives, even when they've never said it, even when their own candidates admit to saying it. Grab audio sound bite number one. Let's go back to March 4th, 2001, on Fox News Sunday. Robert Byrd talking with Tony Snow.
BYRD: My old mom told me, Robert, you can't go to heaven if you hate anybody. We practice that. There are white niggers, and I've seen a lot of white niggers in my time, want to use that word.
RUSH: All right, they can, there's no crime when Robert Byrd uses it, there's no crime when it appears in movies or on television. But, you know, it's a weapon. It's an actual weapon in the Democrat arsenal, this word. And it is brought out and alleged to have been said even when it hasn't been. Of course, that's one of these stereotypes that the left has of conservatives -- racist, sexist, bigot, homophobe, and as we all know, if we want to admit it, it's actually just the opposite in terms of who practices and engages in those kinds of behavior.
