It appears that the Democrats have gained the majority in the Senate. Incumbent Senator from Virginia George Allen has all but conceded the only undecided Senate race to his Democratic opponent Jim Webb (a former Republican who not only served as Secretary of the Navy under Ronnie Reagan, but who also once claimed to have been made sick by the sight of Bill Clinton's returning the salute of a U.S. Marine). What I find so fascinating about this turn of events is the fact that, after all of the nasty campaigning and electioneering by both parties and their minions, the shift in Congressional control came as the result of one single word: "Macaca."
I wonder if Senator Allen still thinks that word is funny now.
