"According to Hotline On Call, Sen. George Allen's (R-VA) campaign is attempting to spin his recent "macaca" remark, saying he didn't mean it in a racist way, he was just calling James Webb (D) campaign volunteer S.R. Sidarth a "shit head."

"Allen, according to Republicans, heard members of his traveling entourage and Virginia Republicans use the phrase and picked it up. It was the first word that came to his mind when he spied Sidarth at the weekend's event, according to Republicans who have been briefed on Allen's version of the event."
