The Return of George Allen

Former Virginia Sen. George Allen used to tout his own "comonsense Jeffersonian principles" as the bedrock of his presidential ambitions.

Then "macaca" happened, and Allen's White House bid was over before it had begun. Now, the cowboy-boot wearing, tobacco-chewing politician has found another candidate who is hoping to use a bit of Southern appeal to win the presidency.

Allen was announced Monday as one of three national co-chairs of Fred Thompson's campaign.
