I don't think that George Allen is smart enough to know those terms.

It seems it has gotten a lot of coverage.  Hannity and Colmes is showing the clip.  I think George Allen is stupid, racist, hateful and incompetent to serve in the US Senate - he deserves to lose for this remark alone and its sad that what many suspect is true; racism hasn't really gone away in America.

Do you know what other politicians are saying behind minority groups backs? No, neither do I, so I wouldn't go off just condemning one man for an insult (against a UVA student of all things Tongue). How many of those rich folks either Republican or Democrat want to deal with lowly blacks, blue collar whites are any group they aren't "as good as them"?

What can you possibly mean?  He insulted him and I think if Allen or anyone else in his campaign or on the right apologised then it would just be so much better.  No, I don't know what politicians are saying I admit - but I would hope that they don't say this and at least I know they don't in public.  Allen has a long history of shady possibly racist associations.  Welcome to Virginia!  He's hardly from the Cradle of the Confederacy is he, he was born in Whittier, California for God's sake!

Allen did apologize:
