James Webb Enters Virginia Senate Race
James Webb, former Navy Secretary, announced that he will fight Harris Miller for the Democratic nomination to challenge incumbant George Allen (R) for US Senate.
Webb served as Navy Secretary during the Reagan era. Webb has the political knowledge to give a strong campaign.
He also is deep in political connections. However, it remains to be seen whether those connections back Webb. In 1994 Webb backed Senator Chuck Robb when he was challenged by Oliver North. But in 2000, Webb switched allegiances to George Allen when he challenged Robb.
At this point I'm not sure who will win this primary, which is set for June 13. Whoever it is will face a tough challenge against former Governor and incumbant Senator George Allen.
