If we lose this one, I can identify the moment. It’s when Perdue bragged about outsourcing jobs to foreign countries. That’s even worse than supporting open borders. What a dumb ass! I wish that Jack Kingston had been the nominee.
Doesn’t say why or what changed - unique maybe to this race, since almost all others around have been sloooooowly trending repubbie.
What Georgian in their right mind would vote to keep Harry Reid as Senate Majority leader?
Sam Nunn was a decent man, and a friend of the military. I hope Georgians understand that this isn’t the same person.
Wisconsin governor race trending away from us also. We are being outspent and outworked.
There is an all out Atlanta media blitz to give the democrat party some momentum.
To be honest, the Georgia republican party deserves to get their rear ends handed to them for the way they have been treating and leading for the past 10+ years.
Perdue won’t be great, but Nunn will be an 0bama robot catering to his every wish. Perdue’s out-sourcing history (and seeming pride in it) could well be his undoing.
They don't or she wouldn't be where she is in the polls.
Maybe we can trade them. They get Nunn in and we get Barrow out.
To be honest, that's not how elections work. The Ga Republican Party won't suffer, WE WILL. Elections. Logic. Not. Emotion.
They don’t understand that his daughter is not the same politically. They are voting for the name.
You are correct.
That's the problem with nominating businesspeople with nugatory records in politics. Their reflex is to make a pitch to the wealthy shareholders who sign their paychecks. Unfortunately, that's an entirely different audience from the average voter who might, in many cases, have an opposing interest.
Jack Kingston would have won this.
Still, SurveyUSA has seemingly been more democratic than other independent pollsters this cycle.
You have to remember Georgia has a run-off if no one reaches 50%, and the run-off electorate is always much smaller and more Republican than the general election one. The Libertarian Party candidate is holding both under 50%, and it really doesn’t matter if Nunn gets a plurality, she’ll be toast in a run-off.
It’s the same thing that happened in 2008 with Saxby Chambliss and Jim Martin. Martin came so close to Chambliss in the general, and got completely crushed in the run-off.
If the carrrpet muuncher Nunn wins the Senate seat its par for the course for the Republicans.
And the Democrats will spin it that its a major defeat for the conservative agenda.
I was a Jack Kingston man anyway.
There are not too many rational voices left on Free Republic, but yours is certainly one of them. When I was in combat, I had little trouble identifying the enemy, they were the little dudes shooting at me. In this environment, that is anyone associated with the Democrat Party. It’s not that hard to figure out.
Which is why you need to vote Perdue.
