Miller, Webb and George Allen

One of the more interesting race is going on will be done in Virginia. The incumbent senator George Allen will be running against democrat James Webb. Perhaps one of the more curious aspects of James weapon being the democratic candidate is the fact that he beat Miller. Miller was the one and the head of the ITAA and organizations are represented high technology companies and lobbied for in one way or another the increase in the number of H1B visas so that companies can bring in more high tech workers and also lower the wages they had to pay all American born talent in software development and other high technology fields. Unfortunately for Miller, some of those votes that ensured that he did not get the nomination came no doubt from high tech workers that did not want to see him as a senator for the United States.
