As we noted the other day, religious conservatives are raising a stink over works of fiction written by Democratic Senate candidate Jim Webb. Democrats? They'd like to know a little more about George Allen's real life.
In a letter sent today, the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee is asking the Virginia State Bar to release the application materials Allen submitted when he applied for a license to practice law in the Commonwealth in the 1970s. "Mr. Allen's bar application was submitted less than five years after two arrest warrants were issued in his name in Albemarle County, Virginia," DSCC Executive Director J.B. Poersch writes in the letter. "Since the official arrest records have been purged, your organization may be one of a handful with official documentation regarding these arrests."
