77. In Georgia the last Democratic governor... Roy Barnes. He offended everyone.

Little by little...the big tent got smaller and smaller. And he lost...didn't have to happen. Trump is doing the same thing. Consider, he didn't win by much (If he won at all) so every person who leaves the tent makes it that much more likely that he will lose in 20. And it also helps us save our Senate seats and maybe just maybe take enough to have a majority in 18 which would save Roe V Wade, Gay rights, and voting rights as we would refuse to approve any judges...well maybe Merrick Garland...but maybe not... a more liberal judge that Trumpers hate would be better. it would save the lower courts for sure.
