    I don’t follow. The dems take several personal shots at Hershel. I don’t know what I said that was so personal.
    Strange Take.

    “Takes” will appear strange if you don’t read posts or what they are quoting. It’s referencing your non sequitur comment about my values because I dare bring up Herschel’s unscrupulous past and discuss his mental acuity. After all there is a good chance he will be 1 of only 50 senators yielding power and could be in office for years and years

    So you get to take shots and I can’t question your values. My bad.

    Everyone is burying the lede. The question isn't whether Walker or Warnock is more unqualified. It is, why was either nominated?
    A similar question should be asked of the Democrats and Republicans in Pennsylvania.

    Just call it like it is

    "I don't care if Herschel Walker paid to abort endangered baby eagles," she said. "I want control of the Senate!"

    Warnock has 4 university degrees. He cares about people. He is a political activist. He has been involved in religious work for a good part of his adult life. He is a qualified candidate. Fetterman also has multiple college degrees, including a masters in public policy from Harvard. He was a mayor for several years and currently is lieutenant governor. He is highly qualified for the Senate. Walker was a really good north-south runner who is completely unqualified to be a U.S. Senator.

    I have only seen each speak out loud a few times, but Warnock seems “normal” and is a damned reverend. The skeletons in the closet aren’t even close (minor issue vs. totally dysfunctional adult human). One guy is basically incoherent. To suggest “both sides” is pretty much ludicrous on its face.

    No its not. They have been non stop in Herschel's face about issues already addressed Walker. Its basically all they have been shooting his way. Warnock is no angel but its' give him the benefit of the doubt type non sense. The skeletons aren't there. It's all Warnock has besides getting funding for a railroad crossing.

    Georgia trying to go for the double whammy tonight with both MTG and Walker, who have a collective IQ of 7 between the two of them. Impressive.

    And it’s said then that Warnock isn’t rolling Walker.
    He must not be that great or the margin would be much higher.

    As for Fetterman he may have done all that but since his stroke it’s unclear that he can function at the level one would expect for a US Senator.

    Nah, Warnock isn’t perfect but the dichotomy between them is still huge. This just speaks more to blind party loyalty more than anything. Not even sure the football hero thing matters here, as Hershel is underperforming Kemp. If Hershel weren’t a complete scumbag, his fame would have probably pulled a few dems and had him over-perform Kemp.

    Post-stroke Fetterman would run circles around Walker
