i’ve a bad feeling that Perdue and Loeffler are going to do a ‘Tuberville’.

Besides kickass fundraising, I hope Stacey Abrams is really ramping up voter registration drives, to recapture all the registered voters the GOP kicked off the voting rosters.

If this was a Western, I do believe this would be the part where the guy with the six-gun makes the other one dance.

Perdue debate? That simply ain’t gonna happen.

“I’ve been abused with the facts enough,” he’ll say.

Perdue’s decision to call off their debate happened a day after Ossoff roasted Perdue in a scathing takedown during their debate last month that went viral. Ossoff called Perdue a “crook” and roasted him over the legal trouble he’s had with his business and his response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Those who want to can support Ossoff and Warnock financially.

That is via the DSCC.

There’s also the “hybrid PAC” set up by …

We can win this

Every American NOT from Georgia (as well as from the state) will dramatically have their lives improved by GA voters electing Warnock and Ossoff.

Quite frankly, given GOP Senate’s opposition to each and every item of the things Americans have long taken for granted in the modern era, both Warnock and Ossoff should be shoo-ins. The fact that we will have to fight so hard for their victory speaks to what I consider an American tragedy.

More people will die than not if McConnell’s Senate is allowed to continue its actions.

The GOP will ask the Supreme Court to rule that people who did not vote in the November 3 election are ineligible to vote in the runoff.

GOTV will determine these races. Both parties as obsessive as serious hockey fans. I don’t see minds being changed, just numbers.

Ossoff should come out swinging and going for blood. Beat him up with his own facts and record. If he refuses to debate, hound him mercilessly for it, and focus on his weakness. And tie him totally to Trump, who is also coming across as weaker with every new squeal of defiance.

McConnell Backs Trump’s Refusal To Concede Despite Decisive Election Result

If this doesn’t motivate, you’re lost before you start.

McConnell must be made as much of a spectator as possible. The power he wields is sociopathic. What he is doing is not only obstructionist, but detrimental to our common national interests.
