Thanks for the background! Always interested to learn more about a place when strange, lopsided numbers come in.

I noticed the numbers in Cobb and Gwinnet - also big counties for GA - were lopsided in the other direction. I can imagine they are nice, middle-class areas where people are gainfully employed.

Keep up the good fight, my FRiend.

I imagine he was watching to see how the turnout for her would be, he had to be embarrassed by his own paltry turnout... all the money in the world doesn’t buy charisma.

16 point win is a great morale booster. I predicted Saxby to win 53-47. I’m glad Saxby won by a much greater margin.

Thank Sarah Palin, Mitt Romney, Mike Huckabee, John McCain, Zell Miller, and Neal Boortz for campaigining for Saxby.

In your face to Obama, Reid, Schumer, Cleland, and third party trolls.

I agree and at every opportunity I will drive that fact home, they can puff up, brag they didn’t vote for the “RINO” all they want, but fact is there is no excuse once we go into the general election for turning your back on your country, which is what approximately 20% did.

If I paid union dues I would be beyond livid every time they spent my money in this manner.

You suppose he is going to ask Reid to throw it to him anyway?

The runoff isn’t what I was speaking of as close. And because the general was so close, you’d better believe Saxby has been sweating this runoff. Folks turned out to vote for him in spite of the fact that they’d love to replace him, and he knows it.

McCain for Saxby rally drew 2,000.

Huckabee for Saxby rally drew 2,000. It was combined with a rally for the Fair Tax with Neal Boortz.

Romney for Saxby rally drew 300.

Palin drew 5,000 per campaign stop yesterday. One Palin rally outnumbered McCain, Huckabee, and Romney.

You are so right — his money couldn’t buy the fact that he flip flopped to become more conservative when he governed as a liberal. That will hurt your charisma when you try to be something you are not and come off as a fraud.

Same man that in the 80’s under Reagan became an Indy but then wanted to claim the Reagan mantle this time. Noticed that Michael Reagan never bought it either.

That is why Gov Palin is so refreshing — she is secure in her own beliefs and is genuine. This is a big win for her tonight as well as Chambliss!

Amen. Third party voters, stay at home all or nothing conservatives and Obama voters will own any attack by al Qaeda on this country. I will never reconcile with those that allowed Obama to win or supported his presidency.
