Soon we'll see ads about how she's an avid hunter.
A hoplophobe billionaire with money to spend.
I cannot believe some of the polls I’m seeing in this race (from realclearpolitics.com) actually have this dingbat ahead. Hope it’s not true!
I've heard the same thing. 99% of the blacks will vote for her because she's a democrat. 99% of the liberals will vote for her because she's about as liberal as you can get and still retain human form (any more liberal and she'd have to turn into a tapeworm or a tick.)
A large percentage of the terminally stupid (who make up a significant percentage of the GA electorate) will vote for her because they envy David Purdue and they hate successful people. And believe me her ads have been playing on that rich/ not rich divide. So I'm not surprised at the polls.
Half the population is below average.
She only needs half the votes plus one.
And the demonicrats know how to manufacture votes.
And the Republicans, particularly the party leadership, REFUSE to do anything about it.
Bloomberg money in politics - life affirming glorious example of the democratic process in action.
Yeah, but I didn’t think the class warfare crap played well in the South. GA is still considered a solid red state (I thought). BHO’s poll ratings are very low there.
Candidate must have 50% of the vote.
Presumably many of the people who moved to GA from the North did so to escape high taxes, big government, and compulsory unionism and other high costs and the anti-business climate of the North. So........you would think they would know better than to vote for anyone with a “D” after her name.
You would think so, but no. They can't seem to make the connection between the liberal policies that they voted for in their previous s**thole and the economic disasters that those liberal policies caused in most of the states the northeast. They come south and bring their stupid voting patterns with them. I guess to vote for big government you have to be somewhat dull witted anyway, and we import those who leave NJ, NY etc, and still are horrified that there isn't gun registration and very few unions here. They vote for things like increasing sales taxes to pay more money into the skools - total waste. etc.
The same people, when they got laid off or made part-time, now depend on food stamps and free healthcare.
A democracy ends when more and more people figure out they can survive by voting for candidates who will give them more free stuff.
"The stateor, to make the matter more concrete, the governmentconsists of a gang of men exactly like you and me. They have, taking one with another, no special talent for the business of government; they have only a talent for getting and holding office. Their principal device to that end is to search out groups who pant and pine for something they cant get, and to promise to give it to them. Nine times out of ten that promise is worth nothing. The tenth time it is made good by looting A to satisfy B. In other words, government is a broker in pillage, and every election is a sort of advance auction sale of stolen goods. " H. L. Mencken
At this point I am just praying the Libertarian keeps Nunn from getting 50% and we get a runoff. Likely even Perdue who is also a nothing burger could pull that off.
This is what we get for running a lackluster candidate. IMO Paul Broun, Karen Handel or Jack Kingston would be leading at this point.
This works AGAINST Nunn, that's why you are seeing this article and this informational push.
