Anecdotal story about Warnock-Walker runoff. [View all]

Friend visited her SOLIDLY REICH-wing Republican father who lives outside of Atlanta this weekend. On her return..

Me: So how does he feel about Herschel Walker?

Her: He said he will not vote for him. Hates him. Called him an idiot.

Me: So he’s going to vote for Warnock?

Her: No. He won’t do that.

Me: He’s going to what? Stay home?

Her: That’s what he’s going to do!

And therein lies victory!
