"This fellow here, over here with the yellow shirt, macaca, or whatever his name is. He's with my opponent. He's following us around everywhere.

In one word: Rove. Yes, the word was deliberate and Allen knows what it means. Some background on his racist college prank here and his fondness for the Confederate flag here.
