Maggie's Farm

Nonsense. I live in Georgia and Kemp made multiple commercials on both television and radio supporting Walker. Say what you will about McConnell but he put over 10 million bucks into the race, far more than Trump did.

Something like 230k people in the general election in Georgia voted for governor but declined to vote for senator--if you know anything at all about politics in Georgia you know that the vast majority of people who did that voted for Kemp but couldn't bring themselves to vote for Walker. I can't imaging ANY Abrams voter NOT voting for Warnock.

A republicans won every statewide office on the ballot in the general in Georgia--except Hershel Walker. Walker was a terrible candidate and this is ALL on Trump--there were multiple candidates in the primary would would have beaten Warnock like a rented mule.

Were it not for Trump's fixation on Kemp and Raffensberger the Senate would never have been in Dem hands for the last two years--he did more to keep Republican voters home in 2018 than any Dem strategist could ever dream of. A huge number of Republicans simply sat out the general and the runoff because the were convinced their vote didn't count.


I voted for him, but right now Trump's the best thing the Dems have going for them. Ronna McDanielle has to go and Trump needs to learn when to keep his mouth shut. I'm sick of losing to losers.

I was seeing Kemp ads on TV and hearing them on radio (yes, I still listen to radio sometimes) multiple times every day. Kemp appeared with Walker at campaign rallies as well--I'm not sure how he sabotaged him doing that.

I voted for Walker on election day, and turnout at my polling place was light--there's no doubt that favors Democrats because their ground game on early and absentee voting is much more effective.

If you want to blame someone other than Trump (and McDaniel) blame the Republicans in the State Legislature who after the codified early voting, too-easy absentee voting, and lock boxes to levels they should never have been taken to. The Dems are FAR better at leveraging those things.

If we want to start winning elections we have to understand why we lose them--poor candidates, the Dem ground game, and mostly the overwhelming bias of corporate media and big tech--those things, especially the bias in media and tech, are what constitute the real cheat, not claiming it was suitcases, or Dominion, or some other unspecified "steal". All those simply distract from what really happened, and the Dems love distractions.

How many corp media stories are being devoted to one of the major factors of the real steal--James Baker and the interference of him and other high-level FBI agents and former agents who worked to interfere in both the '16 and '20 elections?

Until we can make people understand the depth of corruption and bias there is we'll continue to lose.

"You must have missed where the Lt. Governor actually said don't vote for Walker."

He said nothing of the sort--he said he couldn't vote for either Walker or Warnock. A stupid thing to say, but Walker was an even stupider choice as a candidate. And Duncan ain't Kemp, who is very popular here and who CAMPAIGNED FOR WALKER.

As far as this Martin guy, I'm familiar with Georgia politics and have been for the better part of half a century, and I can't make heads or tails out of what he's saying. Kemp campaigned HARD for Walker, that's just a fact.

This didn't have to happen. It's a self inflicted wound. Gary Black or Lathem Saddler would have cleaned Warnock's clock.

The fact is that the Georgia should never have had two Dem senators in the first place, and if Trump was as good at handling his domestic political issues as he was at handling sticky foreign issues Warnock and Ossoff would never have been elected.

Again, over 230,000 voters took the trouble to vote in the general--they voted for governor but couldn't bring themselves to vote for senator, despite the Governor campaigning for Walker almost constantly. That's just an insane number, but it's a fact. And every other statewide race was won by a Republican--another astonishing fact. Walker was the ONLY one who lost.

If you keep shooting yourself in the foot it ain't even really a fight.

The numbers don't lie, the barrage of commercials Kemp made for Walker are real, the times Kemp appeared on stage with Walker actually happened. It was the fact that Walker couldn't even get the voters EVERY SINGLE OTHER Republican got in the same election in the same state that cost Republicans the seat.

If Walker had gotten just HALF the voters who declined to vote for a senator in the general election there never would have been a runoff!

To be perfectly blunt about it people like you who live in a fantasy world are the reason Republicans haven't held the senate since 2018; you're playing right into the Democrat's hands.

Thanks a lot.
