re: Jon Ossoff for Congress

I think Jon Ossoff has a really good chance to win the special election in Georgia's 6th Congressional district. He's a pretty impressive guy, a scholar, and an accomplished writer, and what's more important, an old fashioned Southern blue dog Democrat who favors a strong national defense and budgetary responsibility. He seems to be as far removed from the Pelosi/Pocahontas wing of the party, as Beethoven is from Spike Jones.

What does the board think about this?

---

I am about six months older than Ossoff and have a better educational, political, and business resume than he does, and I wouldn't think of running for federal office for at least another eight to ten years.

Too young, too inexperienced, not nearly enough exposure to the real world.

frick a cuck

If he doesn't win in the first round he'll get crushed in the runoff....

This. The runoff with the Repub winner is in June I think. That give the Republicans enough time to consolidate and focus a campaign against Ossoff...the 6th district will most likely stay red

I don't think he'll reach 50%.

He's going to lose bigly in June. Nobody is actually voting FOR this little crapweasel, because he's never done anything to warrant a seat in Congress and doesn't even live in the district.

---

I thought that too. He's like Al Gore but not as likable.

I'm so sick of his commercials. If I were in the 6th district there is no way I would vote for him.
When I saw John Lewis endorse him, that's all I needed to know about him.

No they won't. They elected Edwin Edwards 4 times in spite of federal indictments. (For Governor)

Southern republicans really need to get ahead of this new tactic that democrats are using if they want to keep their hold on the south.

What they are going to need to do is start campaigns aimed at women, people with less than white skin and folks who like folks with similar plumbing to their own 'cause the times they are a changing and us white folks are too busy making money and buying shite to frick regular enough to have babies....

LOL Georgia isn't voting for this clown. I live in Atlanta and even the people in the city I've talked to about him think he's a clown and will just be a puppet for the people that funded his campaign.

---

They won't in the runoff. People in Georgia are notorious for sucking up to carpet baggers like Handel, who will be the GOP candidate in the run-off, and not supporting home town folks like Ossoff. This penchant for sucking up to yankee scum is why Atlanta became the empire city of the south while every other city in the south languished in ignorance and poverty and hatred until enough people like Handel moved in and changed places like Nashville and Charlotte and Birmingham to look more like New York and Boston....and southerners know deep in our hearts that these people know better than we do how to conduct our affairs and it leaves us to our ignorance and hatred....

No such thing anymore. He's doing it for the votes, then will fall lock-step in with the Lefties when elected, except on inconsequential items.

Thank you sir, this thread can stop right here.
