A little over a year ago, Stacey Abrams couldve had anything she wanted. She was getting a lot of friendly media coverage; many people in the national Democratic Party and the media were disappointed that she lost to Brian Kemp in the Georgia gubernatorial race. She had liberal activists super excited about her future.

So what happened to Stacey Abrams?
Theres a problem with blind ambition when its grouped with inexperience and a sense of entitlement. Abrams allies literally shouted down her primary opponent, Stacey Evans, demanding that the gubernatorial candidate be black. She got the nomination and went on to face Kemp. Throughout the race, her campaign was that she was a super progressive black woman. She felt entitled to the job, and to be fair, her time in the states legislature gave her a lot of experience in working with the governor as well as fighting Republicans.
But, she lost. She could not win her state. Despite record minority voter registration and election day minority turnout, she could not seal the deal. Despite that, she felt entitled to keep the spotlight. She insisted that she was the real governor, said Kemps name would always have an asterisk next to it, and kept herself in the Georgia and national spotlights.
The race was a massive blemish on her record, but she would not be denied. So, she decided she would put out feelers for the Senate race and the presidential race. The former kept Georgia media interested, the latter kept the national media interested. The problem is that she apparently wanted neither.

Point being, well, I didnt really have one, other than stop and laugh often. Where in GA are you? That was my birth state.
Where in GA were you born?
She should pop a chiclet in that gap
Marietta, but grew up in Lost Mountain/Powder Springs, which was still country rural at the time (60’s & 70’s)
She is arrogant and repulsive and has damaged her own image and squandered her momentum.
My folks live in the mountains outside Jasper, so when I visit that’s about as far south as I get. No desire to go to Atlanta for decades.
That picture is from the old version of the movie Willy Wonka And The Chocolate Factory.
Fat, ugly AND stupid is no way to go through life.
you know, I was thinking she could become the official “buffet slayer” but now I hear that buffets will become a thing of the past.
I am so worried about her future.
yeah, no.
“What the Hell Was Stacey Abrams Plan?”
Insanity doesn’t have a plan, but it may have a goal.
Thx.
Loved Hattie in the Shirley Temple classic, Little Colonel.
Your wish is my command... wildcard.
