He thinks we shouldn't address climate change because we have enough trees and insists on a federal total abortion ban "for thee, but not for me"

Democratic candidate Warnock: A PhD who champions voting rights, women's rights and as a current US senator successfully lobbied to cap insulin costs for Medicare recipients and made it a point to work across the aisle, teaming up with Republican Ted Cruz on a highway funding proposal. This well-spoken pastor of Martin Luther King Jr.’s old church resides firmly in reality and supports our foundational principle of whoever gets the most votes or electoral votes is the winning candidate.

But hey, Walker was a really good football player! And is a Donald Trump & Mitch McConnell fave!


Pennsylvania:

Republican candidate Mehmet Oz: A discredited former thoracic surgeon & television hawker of magic diet pills and pseudo-science COVID treatments, fined millions for his fraudulent quackery, is an extremist forced birther and an election denier. He lives in New Jersey, works in New York City and votes in Turkey.

Democratic candidate Fetterman is the lieutenant-governor of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and is running on the same issues he's valued for the past 2 decades: Pennsylvania jobs & businesses, women's rights, free and fair elections, rule of law, incarceration honesty and educational sanity.

But hey, Oz was a TV star! And a Donald Trump & Mitch McConnell fave!

When the far -right sends its people, they're not sending their best. They're sending people that have lots of problems, and they're bringing those problems to us.

These senatorial races are not about voting for whichever candidate is the least awful and unqualified. C'mon, now. The MAGA GOP led by the disgraced and defeated former guy are the culprits who have assembled a trove of truly terrible candidates in their quest for power not good governance, and the 2 races being discussed in this thread are only the tip of the iceberg.

I suspect there are plenty of voters who (likely myself) will vote Rep. simply because they do not want the Dem controlling the House or the Senate. I also suspect the country is in for a lot more economic pain. I'm not suggesting this is entirely the fault of Dems but I do not like the direction the country is headed. Time for the Dems to go.

Could you at least finally put the "family values" card back in the deck.

After Ted Kennedy, Bill Clinton, Joe Biden, abortions on demand, big welfare state and taking away parental rights, I understand why Democrats put big government over the family. It goes against the big government religion.



An active preacher in the U.S. Senate? I guess the Democrat outrage doesn't apply to them.

This is going to make it much harder for Republicans to win the majority. They have so many candidates which are a mess, it's no wonder Mitch McConnell was whining about it a few weeks ago.

‘Pro-Life’ Herschel Walker Paid for Girlfriend’s Abortion
The woman has receipts—and a “get well” card she says the football star, now a Senate candidate, sent her.

Do you care about family values?': Walker's son denounces father's campaign
"I know my mom and I would really appreciate if my father Herschel Walker stopped lying and making a mockery of us," Christian Walker said.

Herschel Walker Lied About His Secret Kids to His Own Campaign
https://www.thedailybeast.com/hersch...s-own-campaign

isnt using the daily beast and politico to make points on the 'net similar to calling someone a nazi in an argument?


cmon, you can do better that referring to a triggered kid that is clearly unstable from the videos he posts. there is a family sitch in play here that does not even deserve the proverbial grain-o-salt.


facts still remain...GA is in trouble (but not past the PONR) and warnock is part of the trouble. (to be fair the larger part of this trouble rests with Gov Abrams in the first place...)

LMAO!!! A fake Jesus Christ preacher that is for abortions on demand but is against the death penalty for murders. Save murderers but kill millions of unborn babies! Jesus in the air!!!

He is a wicked racist garbage that said: "The US needs to repent for its worship of whiteness." because Americans vote for whites over blacks in government. A preacher says this.

He said that Georgia I.D. laws were Jim Crow and said ""full-fledged assault on voting rights, unlike anything we seen since the era of Jim Crow." Not only he is a divisive liar but a racist with a bible on his hand preaching to the seals every Sunday spreading hate and lies.

He challenged the Georgia election and said Stacy Abrams won and spread conspiracies about the election and he joined and campaigns for an election denier Stacy Abrams.

We don't need a racist fake preacher with bad ideas in the U.S. Senate. The guy is garbage.

Crack is whack! anybody that believes that cr@p from Fetterman and that he is qualified to be a U.S. Senator when he is punch drunk and caused his own stroke is really in la-la land.

What's her accusation? that She wanted to keep the baby and Walker forced her and she is upset and wants Walker and the GOP to do what?

Let's pretend they had sex and she got pregnant with his baby (she can't prove it) She is the one that decided to get an abortion, went to the clinic, signed the forms and got the procedure. What exactly does she wants now? For the GOP to change the platform? for him politically to declare he is pro abortions? You wanted Walker to force her to have the baby against her will? What's her angle?


I thought women said you don't kiss and tell but now is acceptable if it's against the bad party. Imagine if a man does this to a woman. Everybody would crucify him.
Keep pulling those straws his own son confirmed her story you think you know more about the man's life then his own son please.

So what's the crime here? What's the woman's angle? She is the one that went to a rag and hides her name? She says she had sex with Walker, she got pregnant and she decided to get an abortion. How is this the voters' problem?


If I say I had sex with Michelle Obama and she aborted against my wishes years ago 1 month before an election, what's the angle?


if Walker was pro choice and a Democrat, you think this story would be out there?

Still pulling at straws huh

I have no problem with the abortion the problem is Walker said that he wants Abortion ban with zero exceptions even in the case the mother is going to die. He wants woman to die while giving birth like were in the 15th century. There is no angle his son said it all they told him not to run for office and drag his family though this make all his past public. Walker should have come clean on the paid abortion and said he did it and he was wrong Trump would have done that. Instead Walker lied and that is when his son called him out.

Just asking common sense questions. What's her angle? She wants Walker to lose? She wants money? Who is the victim here?



What does his son has to do with this? He doesn't decide if Walker runs or not. The son injected himself in social media. Who was bothering him? What does his son has to do with this woman who allegedly got an abortion? Does he knows this woman? What does this has to do with the voters?

^^^Amen to that!

Domestic violence, abandoned children, "abortion for me but not for thee" and STILL in the race.
Only MAGA Republicans could be so stubborn and obtuse.
Values and ethics be damned...as long as we own the libs.

And speaking of forced birthers, how about those Evangelicals & GOP leaders huddling around their anointed guy, Herschel. If they no longer care that Republican candidates have or pay for abortions, they can just mind their own business about the rest of us, as well.

Kemp will definitely win the Governors race. Senate is still undetermined but another 30 days of Biden's follies will make it hard for any Democrat in the Senate to win.
