So was Fetterman. So was Biden. This 'terrible candidate' standard doesn't apply to Democrats because they blindly vote for Dems regardless of the candidates foibles, character, or mental state.

That graphic of the donkey and elephant doing hurdles comes to mind.

When you control the MSM + voting machines + ballot harvest schemes + voting law --> you can run a vegetable, crook, or senile guy and still win. Or in Biden's case, he's all three.

Leave it to the dumb aggies that think it's as simple as "well Walker's not a very good candidate". The typical aww shucks types that are cool with losing so long as we stay classy Ags.

Which is my point.

If you're not in favor of the left's policies you vote for your side. The Dems close rank every time. Doesn't matter who they run, they always back each other.

we are getting what we deserve

Walker may win but I never underestimate the Rs ability to screw it up.

GOP is demoralized.

Warnock by 2.

DeSantis and Kemp can't save Walker.

Who's the better candidate is irrelevant .... its about which ballots get submitted to be counted AND which counties have the most sway in counting them.

You think Fulton County is going to play fair with Walker? Fat chance.

Hopefully the ATL will come out in droves and take care of this one.

Or the opposite. It's already locked up for democrats so republicans won't care. It's still a valuable seat though because Manchin still has a vote and won't allow for all the democratic agenda. They likely want a little wiggle room.

---

Yep. A Walker win keeps Manchin as the most powerful politician in America.

And hardly ever was a more true and lastingly accurate, and still accurate, political cartoon wrought.

Conservatives shouldn't vote for walker because he's pro-abortion, threatens women and has abandoned at least some of his children.

Live in Atlanta now. Republican base is dejected and held our noses to vote for walker in the first place.

Most everyone is expecting a Warnock win at this juncture

Going to be a very low turnout. Probably worse for walker. Incumbent is going to win.

You sound just like.......Kari Lake.

The day before the election she yelled "if there are any McCain Republicans here...GET OUT!!!! GET OUT NOW!!!!!.......and everybody ROARED

Yeah We'll show THEM!! WELP....those were the people she NEEDED in a close election. I've never seen any political do that. Tell the voters that are on the fence, undecided, " I don't want your vote...go F yourselves"

She's the Todd ( well if it's a LEGITIMATE Rape...") Akin of 2022.

Herschel Walker isn't winning in Georgia. Every time he opens his mouth, he loses another 5,000 votes. Had you guys nominated anybody BUT Walker....that seat probably goes back to the GOP.

This can only be described as deliberate Political Darwinism on behalf of the GOP.

Keep fumbling the ball on your own 5 yard line...fine with me.

I don't think Dems have voted "for" their candidates in the past two cycle as much as they're voting "against" Republican candidates - especially those that have kissed the ring. Trump is truly toxic.

I would say Walker is a big underdog, now. If Trump stays away and if DeSantis and Kemp get on board for him, maybe he pulls it out.

Democrats love divisive, bigoted, hateful rhetoric/candidates on their side.

Oh but he is just so smart compared to Walker.

Those who state that Walker is a bad candidate must offer someone in Ga that is better. Where are they? My goodness, bad candidate. Did you see what happened in Pa, etc. The senate is full of bad candidates but they got elected. It is a cesspool of crap.

Here. Kemp has done a nice job of bringing a lot of businesses to Atlanta. I view him as very pro business and good for my city / state. (Don't love his extreme abortion positions but I vote on economics, not social issues at the gov / mayor level.)

Kemp and Raffensperger (edited for the spelling police) forever won my vote by standing up to Trump and not engaging in election fraud and refusing to "find votes" for Trump. I truly believe they are a part of a handful of brave men who prevented a Trump coup and constitutional crisis.

As long as extreme right R's push low IQ, Maga idiots in primaries, I'm not getting on board. (I voted Gary Black in the primary.). It's very important to me that Trump loses his grip on the party.

About a week ago, Herschel Walker was talking about Martians

Yesterday he talked about werewolves and vampires.

Certainly very germane issues for a US senator to consider. That's sure gonna motivate R's to come out and vote.

I looked at the numbers again. Brian Kemp got 203,050 more votes from Republicans than Walker did. They took the trouble to stand in line and vote. It would have taken them one nanosecond to check Walker's name along with Kemp's while they were in the voting booth. Do you think those same people are gonna go out on a Tuesday, stand in line, so they can vote for a guy they didn't vote for the first time around?

No.....they're headed to the golf course.

Right there with you. I voted for 13 Republicans in the midterms but did not vote for Walker. He's a hand picked pro-Trump idiot. I will donate to DeSantis' campaign and vote for him.

LOL, I'll give you some feedback, on some of that nonsense.

No one should 'forever' earn anyone's vote. I was a big Trump supporter policy-wise, and enjoyed the tears/melts he created on the left as much as anyone (hi, georgiag). I'll definitely not support him for 24, but I am able to look at an issue, or rather a choice, as just that; a decision between two options. I don't get to pout and assert 'well, 'my' guy once said something I disagree with, so I can never ever vote for him. I'll just tacitly support the communist.' I think such is a childish way to view a ballot.

Do you think when Algore wanted to recount only Dem-heavy counties in Florida he was seeking to just make sure it was all fair? Do you think Democrats are really trying to just 'get out votes' today in general elections/legalizing ballot harvesting in places like CA are doing so out of a sense of 'let's get everyone to vote' or is it 'let's make sure our votes and voters all vote and those votes are counted once we know the target?' Serious question, as I don't know why this nefarious incredulity about Trump's message several years ago in a phone call to Raffensperger is still so traumatizing to many leftists.

I also have never met a Republican in person who felt Trump tried to steal Georgia in 2020, which seems to be your implication. Do I have that wrong? I don't want to call you a liar but I am genuinely skeptical of that line of thought/reasoning from a 'republican' poster who just so happens to be concerned about the intelligence of the GOP candidate for US Senator in a runoff election this year.

I am not clear why anyone would consider a state, or the body politic of a state, supporting a human child's right to live as extreme. People still are getting abortions/killing their kids, fyi. There's even a booming/growing tourism industry around it in places like NY/CO etc. (Or China/other countries run by Godless leftists/communists). The Supreme Court decision this year has made it clear that this is a state issue now. If this is important to you, I am not sure why you didn't vote for Abrams for governor.

Here you are obviously buying into the idea that 'extreme right republicans' are pushing for dumb, Trump supporting idiots in primaries. I have no issue with how you voted in the primary. I didn't really pay much attention to your state's primary. I did not vote for Abbott in the primary here, but I'd have walked across hot coals/lava to vote for him to defeat Beto, and that's how I feel about the prospect of taking power from the communists in the US Senate as well.

Your talking point is widely supported on the left on this matter though (see: georgiag). I would note I don't see many with such positions/posters/people lambasting the left for boosting maga candidates in the R primaries (a strategy that...worked!) Hmmm, it's almost as if there is a double standard for candidate quality. Oh well, I certainly know I won't convince someone who is fine with a Democrat/marxist like Warnock being re-elected as their governor as to the risk, short and long term (6 years being a long time politically) to giving the Democrats more power/control/negotiating power in DC. I certainly don't think we have the luxury of being ok with them (not Schumer specifically) being more powerful than not. Clearly, 'you people' disagree.

I also have no idea who 'extreme right' republicans are. Maybe you can clarify on that, without mentioning Trump more than 2 or 3 times (who is not really conservative, imho).

Ok, you are very traumatized by the J6 near-revolution so I don't want to give you actual PTSD problems/hurt you emotionally but that was, fyi, an FBI operation. It was not Trump or grass roots 'proud boys' etc. who nearly caused a delay of maybe a whole day in the electoral certification if they'd only had an army with them. I have never met an actual conservative/republican who was traumatized by this, but I also don't know any who watch CNN for news/information, unless you want to count georgiag as a republican.

Question, I have read this sentiment a few times various places on the internet, in general from white people. I've not found a black person who thinks he is so stupid/an idiot. I have a suspicion this is pertaining to his speech patterns/public speaking, but maybe not.

Second, what has he done/said that makes people think he is so dumb?

Third, if IQ (or some other barometer of intelligence/mental capacity/learning) is significant to you as a rule in/rule out bar for the US Senate, what other senators from georgia do you think have similarly been 'not bright enough for the job?'

Fourth question; the GA US Senate's current brain trust has voted in favor of your chosen president's (poopy pants' earpiece) $5 trillion spending boom, which is inarguably costing a lot of people their jobs/livelihood, and healthcare. Since this isn't a race/gender/orientation/hairstyle decision, to me it comes down to what would be better for the US/state of Georgia? Ipso facto it's a simple decision matrix.

I don't think Walker has any ability to influence Trump's incredibly improbable prospects at winning the GOP POTUS nomination in 2024. Last question, how do you think this 'idiot' somehow will put Trump over the top though, if he wins the runoff this year by a point or less? What risk are you really worried about, if not?

I suppose our two resident concerned republican voters who essentially support Warnock for re-election and are concerned about extreme republican candidates limiting abortion are just too busy to defend their comments further, but I find abortion to be one of the biggest issues that motivate me to see the US Senate return to GOP control.

It's to me murder and a sickness, rather than something to be casually dropped as a concerning issue when thinking about a senate candidate. Here is a piece discussing the mentality of an abortion provider, as written by her.

Quote:

Quote:

---

On a recent afternoon in my clinic, fifteen years after the earthworm experiment, a young medical assistant named Jenny approaches me between patients. "Can I show you something?"

She pulls up an ultrasound video on her phone: a fetus, its perfectly formed limbs, fingers and toes, squirming and jumping in its wedge-shaped sonographic window, bounded by the fuzzy, white-gray walls of a uterus.

"Awwww! Adorable!" I look at Jenny; she is beaming. I have known for some time that she is pregnant. (She occasionally asked for my advice during the eight months it took her to conceive.)

"How many weeks are you now?" I ask her.

"Fifteen."

"Fifteen weeks! Wow! Look at that little baby. So cute!" It wasn't long ago that I was pregnant with my own children, gazing lovingly at their ultrasound photos.

---

"Look at that little baby. So cute." Clearly this is a person, already loved. It is perfect, and squirms and jumps within the womb.

Soon after this conversation Christine and the nurse enter a surgical room to kill a fetus at exactly the same stage of development without a qualm. A perfectly healthyto use her word, not minebaby.

Quote:

---

Later that afternoon, Jenny assists me during a fifteen-week procedure. The fetus on the ultrasound screen looks just like Jenny's, in every recognizable, perfectly formed detail: fingers, toes, beating heart. But this image is very different because of the context in which I am viewing it.

The woman is lying on the table, awake but sedated by medications. I dilate her cervix and place a small plastic tube inside her uterus. I watch the ultrasound screen. I flip a switch; a humming noise fills the room. At this instant, the fetus seems to jump as though startled; then it squirms in the tight, already shrinking space of the uterus. It continues to move in this very human, baby-like way until the last instant, when it is overpowered by the force of the vacuum and sucked through a plastic tube, whisked out of the uterus and into a glass jar in a rush of blood. Gone.

Then all I see on the ultrasound is the fluffy, whitish-gray lining of the uterine walls; after a few more seconds, even that disappears. All that is left is the empty uterus, and the memorymine and Jenny's aloneof what was there before.

This, I suppose, is precisely the kind of test my pre-med classmate thought I had failed: a test of my strength to do what is asked of me, to handle the most difficult, even painful moments. How wrong she was. And how wrong, how ill-informed, was the very premise of that test. My willingnessI would call it a conscientious compulsionto perform abortions has nothing to do with toughness or timidity.

---

Most people would shrink from describing any of it, especially the gory details. Hennenberg does not because she believes she is morally compelled to commit such acts, and it is that which requires our consideration.

Condemnationour first impulse, or at least mine and many othersdoes no good. This is legal, even lavishly praised. The right to do precisely this has been enshrined both into law and into some state constitutions, and is likely to be expanded around the country. We simply must understand the thinking of such people.
