"My priority most of all would be America. ... I want to bring people back together," he said.

The U.S. Senate is about the last place to accomplish that then.

Not to his face, but I expect that many liberals will attack him from the privacy of their mothers' basements.

Herschel could very easily take down Warnock, IMO. HW might not win the GA black vote, but he’d peel off a decent chunk.

The Dems are now the party of Wall Street, and the elites. When the elections come around, they pretend to care about minorities and urban America. The reality is that they don't. They only care about buying off their political leaders. The last election shows that these people can only win by cheating shamelessly. So now in GA we could have two African-Americans on the GOP ticket for U.S. Senator (Walker) and Governor, (Vernon Jones). Once the Dems lose significant chunks of the votes of people of color, their governing coalition gets exposed for what it is, the elites, and their cheating will have to increase, and become even more obvious than it was in 2020.

Herschel has shown courage in overcoming these difficulties and giving public talks to encourage others in similar situations, especially other men. He may not want all of that dredged up and put on public exhibit by his opponents. We will see. If he can respond to the dredgings without letting them distract from his political mission, it could wor

I think Herschel is great. That being said the campaign would be brutal. I do not know if he wants to put his family through all that. The MSM would rehash everything that has ever happened to him non stop, after all he is a Republican.

If he doesn't run, he'll regret it the rest of his life.

If he runs and wins, he'll regret it the rest of his life.

The difference is, he'll regret it longer if he doesn't win.

I just hope he is properly prepared for the hate and vitriol that the media and Dems will through at him for running as a Republican. Maybe have a candid and private chat with Justice Thomas.

By funny to think, me a Gator, will be giving Herschel more love than probably a lot of UGA fans.
