Why is Michelle Nunn

running an ad saying she agrees with Republicans and is against Obama? This is no way to get out the Democratic vote. She is going to lose this way. This is why I voted against her in the primary.

she is copying grimes in KY - obama who? nt msongs Sep 2014 #1

I donated to both Grimes and Nunn and this disappoints me davidpdx Sep 2014 #3

Sadly, it's typical Ga politics, and viewed as the way to win. Jim Carter ran similarly for Gubnor. Hoyt Sep 2014 #2

John Barrow is doing something similar. Its the Democratic as Independent gambit aikoaiko Sep 2014 #4

Maybe one day it will be different. The Republican candidate is painting Nunn as pro Obama, pro Obamacare, for amnesty, etc. And sadly, she has to deny it to have a chance to win. Not sure I like that, but will definitely vote for her over the flaming racist, hater of the poor and middle class Republican.

I actually haven't seen the ad you describe for Michelle, though.

Can you see if you can find it on youtube? I couldn't.
