Gubernatorial Race 2018 (Atlanta, Stone Mountain: airports, teaching, parlor)

[atler8]

I just watched Stacey Abrams answering questions on Jake Tapper's morning CNN news program.
Every time I hear her speak I'm more determined & prouder than ever to vote for her.
Brian Kemp was also invited to appear on the show but declined the offer. What is he afraid of? Tapper doesn't employ cheesy techniques such as what I've seen Tucker Carlson use over on fox news like turning down a guest's mic volume or cutting off a guest constantly as they speak or answer a question, much less suddenly pulling the plug on an interview.

Yes, all politics aside, I hate to see him be exploited for entertainment. I've always heard that Kanye suffers from bipolar disorder and that it was his mother that was really instrumental in keeping him mentally healthy. She made sure she went to the doctor and took his meds. Once she died unexpectedly, on top of the grief he felt, he had no one to really look out for him. It's very sad because he seems to have been in a negative death spiral ever since.

Kanye West is talented. You can't take that away from him.

I know Kanye is not noted for his ability to carry a tune, but these days it is recognized that melody really isn't the key to music.

Seriously? You like rap music? I wouldn’t know a single thing he’s done. He seems successful, so he must be good. It can’t be cheap, paying for the little woman’s butt lifts and tummy tucks, and all.

As for the governors race, I would love to vote for a woman, but I’ve heard nothing but negativity from Abram’s ads, and I’m not rewarding bad behavior.....especially if it hurts the Republican juggernaut.

I'll give you that he's a somewhat decent rapper, but that's a far cry from being a "gifted singer."

My daughter lives in mid-town Atlanta, she's a young professional who works hard for a living. She's voting for the only candidate born and raised in Georgia. On a recent visit to Atlanta I recall Ms.Abrams discussing how she wanted to take action on the Civil War carvings on Stone Mountain. Just curious, is that still on her agenda? I see Obama endorsed Ms. Abrams, not a big deal but it reminded me of how nice and caring he seemed before his election. Nothing anybody says on this site or anywhere will change one vote, but history is a great teacher.....

Then you might consider not weighing in.

And Kemp's ads have been a ray of sunshine. Are you kidding here?
