US Airways, DC to Tampa

November 28, 2007 10:23 AM

This flight is packed with GOP debate attendees, media and political both.

In First Class: former House GOP honchos Dick Armey and Bill Paxon, the latter of whom is now a well-heeled lobbyist backing Rudy Giuliani.

In coach with me and the rest of the great media unwashed: former Gov. and Sen. George Allen, R-Virginia, a supporter of Fred Thompson, who tells me he will be live-blogging the debate for Fred.

A colleague points out that 18 months ago, Mr. Allen seemed headed to this debate as a candidate, a strong one, likely on a corporate jet or campaign charter. America is a fickle one.

Is George Allen still carrying that stupid football around like he is filming the sequel to Cast Away?

Jake - Very good, George Allen is a respectful individual, and I think his opinion means a lot. I like he took coach, that show a little humility on his side. Fred is the man he has not wavered at all on issues like others.
