It’s been infuriating driving around Atlanta and seeing Martin signs EVERYWHERE. I was in the Emory area, which is a nicer section of town, and I never saw a Chambliss sign.
I guess the whole city has been overrun by northeners. I’ve never seen so many people willing to spite their own future outlooks by voting for Democrats because the taxes are coming out of their hides.
The minute you enter inside 285 it is all Dems, cross the country line into Gwinnett, Cobb, N. Fulton, Douglas, etc. and it is like being in a different state.
Saxbe’s aunt belongs to my church here in Nebraska. We are praying for his victory
now that you mentioned Emory, I was reading a book about the suburban growth in Atlanta and the rise of GOP leaders like Gingrich. Of course the super lib historian called it subliminal racism
What planet did you drop in from where that would actually be a surprise to you? John Lewis, Cynthia McKinney, the entire King family, Andrew Young, Sidney Dorsey, the Atlanta Journal Constitution, Bill Campbell, Hartsfield Airport.......
Atlanta is heavily rat. Natives and northerners.
I was a Republican poll watcher in the Emory area back in the 64 election. I was the first of my kind that they had ever seen, I think.
The Democrat in charge of the poll was a nice guy. He was a prof from Emory as I remember. The other Democrat poll workers watched me with suspicion. Of course, the fact that I had a "Johnson phooey" bumper sticker on my car (made from two "Johnson Humphrey" stickers) didn't help.
