Worried GA Dems Calls in the Cavalry for Warnock-Walker Race
When the Democratic Party gets desperate, it is almost impossible to miss the signs. There’s nothing subtle about their exhausting and frantic flailing, even if it is rather redundant.
The latest sign of trouble for the liberal left comes to us from the Peach State, where they are calling in the big guns in an effort to win a tight runoff race for the Senate.
An impassioned former President Barack Obama urged Georgians to re-elect Sen. Raphael Warnock as he headlined a large rally for the first-term Democratic lawmaker who’s facing off with Republican challenger Herschel Walker in Tuesday’s Senate runoff election.

The former president charged that Walker, a first time candidate and former college and professional football star, lacked the “confidence or the character, the track record of service, that would justify him representing Georgia in the United States Senate right now.”
And then:
And taking aim at some of the controversial comments Walker’s made in recent weeks – including telling supporters that “I don’t want to be a vampire anymore, I want to be a werewolf” – Obama jabbed at Warnock’s opponent, saying “Mr. Walker has been talking about the issues of great importance to the people of Georgia.”
Of course, it bears mentioning that the Democrats have brought Barack Obama to Georgia to help them win against this particular candidate, so the “werewolf” dig may not be quite as effective for the former President’s speech writers think it was.
