'Really dangerous': CNN panel shreds conservative after she rationalizes still voting for Herschel Walker
By Brad Reed
Published October 06, 2022
Conservative commentator Alice Stewart on Thursday found herself cornered by fellow CNN panelists John Avlon and S.E. Cupp when she defended continuing to vote for scandal-plagued candidate Herschel Walker.
During a discussion about the latest allegations against Walker, including that he paid for a girlfriend's abortion and also physically abused his family, Stewart said that Georgia voters would look past everything because they are so focused on issues like crime and inflation.
"We're seeing character and ethics are not a qualifying factor for elected officials anymore," she explained. "It's unfortunate but it's actual reality... But conversations in my home state of Georgia, they're not concerned with what Herschel Walker did in 2009."

(12,324 posts)Hershel Walker... did you pay for the abortion? Answer: That isn't important. Crime is important.
EVERY Republican interviewed on Sirius/P.O.T.U.S. answers questions by directing the topic to crime.
Ya see.... that's all they got.
