Georgia changing?

[rustbeltvoice]

Sorry, but definitely no. Walker was a titanic train wreck, and twice he was so close to winning. I saw many interviews where reporters asked white people why are you voting Walker. So many answered because i am a christian, and he is a christian. Not one reporter remarked, well Warnock is a christian pastor. That unasked apt question would destroy their stated rationale. So to would a follow up question for other supposed statements supporting Walker, and the Republican Party. False answers are given out loud in public, the real reasons are held in confidence. The press does not want to state the obvious. The Republican Party is a fascist party. It is the White People's Party. Georgia is not changing, the overwhelming majority of white Georgians are devoutly racist. Georgia demographics are slowwwwly changing.

I remember many people giving the he's a christian response in 2004 for gwbjr. It was ant-Catholic bigotry, the oldest American bigotry. It was also meant he is just like me. Since Warnock and Walker are both black christians, Warnock a Baptist preacher, and maybe Walker is a Baptist too (i don't know), the allegiance must be to party. And that goes back to the 1964-5 Civil Rights laws signed by Johnson. The Democrats lost the South. Alabama put in a stupid, and dishonourable football coach over Doug Jones. Jones was a sitting senator, and previously he prosecuted two klansman for the bombing murders of four black children, and he also brought the Olympic Park Bomber to justice.

By any little bit of decent understanding and reason capable to discern candidate quality, Jones and Warnock should have won in lopsided routes. Warnock squeezed by multiple times.

1. "majority of white Georgians are devoutly racist" Nope. A LOT, maybe but not 'overwhelming

majority. I know. I've been here for 50 years. Now, if you say WHITE REPUBLICANS, then yes.

2. Ohio is more bigoted than GA

GA is moving forward while Ohio is going backwards.

3. Yep, and Walker would have won in Ohio by 5%.

6. So true!

And based on my experience as an unfortunate, 22 year resident of that steaming cesspool of a state, the 5% margin cited would probably be a very conservative estimate.

4. There's metro Atlanta and there's Georgia....

...... and metro Atlanta -- younger, more multicultural, more progressive than Georgia as a whole -- is growing much faster than the state as a whole, and asserting itself culturally and politically.

5. and thank gawd for them, they were the push over the top for Senator Warnock.

7. Georgia is definitely changing.

They have two Democratic senators and voted for Biden in 2020. That wouldn’t have happened even ten years ago.
