The Return of the Macaca Moments?

Conservative columnist Robert Novak seems to think that ex-Virginia Senator George Allen might be hoping to make a political comeback.

George Allen, whose Republican presidential dreams were shattered by his upset defeat for re-election to the Senate in 2006, is considering a comeback by running for governor of Virginia in 2009.

You might remember Allen from his famous YouTube moments (like when he used the obscure, prejudicial remark "macaca" or when two of his supporters beat up a blogger) that cost him his reelection to the Senate last year and crushed his hopes of running for President. Ya, those are going be tough to recover from.

Allen has previously served as Governor of Virginia from 1994-1998.
