re: I don't understand the Georgia poll results so far.

I don't love Kemp but he's clearly less dangerous than Abrams. Herschel and Warnock are equally terrible for different reasons.

Do you not understand how the Senate works? I actually could understand this sentiment if Kemp and Walker were reversed on Gov and Sen. As the Governor has to actually run the state government and make sure the trains arrive on time.

But in the Senate. You are simply voting in your proxy vote. So either you are lying, and really are just a center-left Democrat who has stayed independent, but doesn't like the far left. Or you are ignorant to how our government is supposed to work.

And news flash, 99% of politicians are slimeballs and idiots. You have no idea how carefully crafted and curated most politicians really are. They have teams around them that tell them what to say, how to think, etc. It is not the romantic, rosy picture you have in your head.

The bottom line is, I know where Walker stands on the following issues, and why if I lived in GA I would vote for him as my proxy vote over the alternative, where I know where he stands on as well.

Packing the court

Eliminating the filibuster

Banning semi-automatic guns

Forced vaccinations

Sexual mutilation surgery for children

Out of control spending for social programs

Massive unconstitutional power grab, centralizing all elections to Washington DC

Green New Deal climate scams

Neverending funding to other countries


So either you aren't sure where you stand on all these issues. Or you seriously need to take a couple online Civics and Constitution classes at Hillsdale, because you do not understand the purpose of electing representatives. They aren't representing your personality or debate skills, they are representing your vote.

The main problem I see with Independents, is they are generally agnostic about what they believe in, and don't really understand how the system works. They simply just want the perfect politician to come around and say everything they agree with. It does happen at times, but it is usually rare. But if you become active as a citizen (beyond voting), and get enough like minded people, you can use that power to move politicians to your will. Because most politicians are chameleons and will morph into whatever form they need to be, in order to survive. This is the system we live with, either get in the game and figure out how to leverage into your benefit, or pout on the sidelines and take your ball home.
