Terrible Candidates and Terrible Candidates

As expected, Republican Herschel Walker lost the Georgia U.S. Senate runoff to incumbent Sen. Raphael Warnock.

The turnout was in every demographic record or near record, which means the entire “voters are being suppressed” by Georgia election laws was as bogus as we thought. Their laws make voting more accessible than many other, bluer, states, notably the home states of the current Democratic president and vice president of the United States.

Herschel Walker was not the devil his self-appointed scolds in the media made him out to be, but he was a terrible candidate, unprepared to run this race. Consider that in the other statewide races in Georgia this cycle, from governor on down, Republican candidates won by margins of two to 10 percent.

Walker looks to have lost by about 2 percent. Once again, the GOP shoots itself in the foot.

But remember, many of his fiercest critics in the media were floating Michael Avenatti for president not long ago, including “The View” panelist Ana Navarro who likened him to the Holy Spirit.

Avenatti is starting a 14 year prison sentence for stealing from clients and tax fraud.
