Your miss the larger picture... have you ever played capture the flag as a child you run into the other teams side and try to steal the flag and bring it back to your team side.

As mention before this is a pretty solid republican district that doesn't suppose to be even close. This suppose to be Republican safe zone.

If Ossoff would had won the Dem would stole a red district not a purple but a historic red district. The fact he lost is bad but the fact a Dem was even competitive in a a red district is bad for the GOP. This mean Dems could be even stronger in purple district lost since 08 to retake the house.The Dems had the majority in 08, this wasn't one them.

Because if she win, Trump is going to try to spin this. As if the Odds weren't already in her favor.

The real story here is a democrat being competitive in a district that republicans suppose to have in their pocket easily.

I honestly can't hold respect for anyone that would vote for Handel. I'm not sorry. If you voted for Handel you are objectively wrong and your decision is stupid. There is no logical reason to vote Handel over Ossoff unless you're a conservative millionaire which our 6th district lacks. Handel has done absolutely nothing to prove to Georgians that's she's for us and not corporations. I'm disappointed in you GA-6.

I give you credit for not posting a YouTube video. You seem to miss the point. At what point do we stop dumping millions or billions in Hillary's case into awful candidates? This isn't hard. Find some likeable candidates and run them instead of the entitled idiots we have wasted more money on than several nations GDP. It is embarrassing at this point. If Ossoff is the best we have to run then just forget it.

Well the national Democratic party tried to make it a referendum on Trump (Ossoff had the sense to back off that personally, unlike the national party). Trump beat Clinton by 1.5 points. Handel looks like she will win by 4 or 5.

I heard many of these liberals would not vote for him because he was too moderate, too centrist..not liberal, radical enough. They wanted a Berniesque socialist. Good luck with that. Had they ran a far left socialist then this race would have been over a long time ago and a dem would not have even made it to a runoff.

If by light weight you mean centrist who tried to make everyone happy you are correct, but anyone further to the left of Ossoff would have lost by an even larger margin. But I'm not sure if that's what you're referring to.

Come on, "30-year-old investigative filmmaker"

LOL

I'm not mad. This has happened too often for me not to anticipate it. The people of the 6th should be mad for electing a total idiot into office. I can forgive Trump voters because at least he's a good liar, but Karen told you that she's not for you.
