Yet despite the primary rancor between Abraham and Rispone, which Abraham dismissed as the “unfortunate part of politics,” he swiftly endorsed his fellow Republican in his Nov. 16 runoff election against Gov. John Bel Edwards, fulfilling a key wish of a GOP that is looking to unseat the only Democratic governor in the Deep South.
quote:
“You have to look at the big picture here,” Abraham said after delivering a brief concession speech. “Politics can be distasteful. But we're adults in the room. It's the end game that is important and we need to move our state, my state, to a better spot.”

That’s more class and less ego than I expected.

He needs to tell his followers.

Yeah, that came together nicely. Abraham quickly adjusted to take any potentially unproductive pride out of the picture, and Rispone did his part to ensure gracious and professional reception of that crucial endorsement. And it took not even 24 hours.
The idea is for their respective supporters to be as humble and gracious and able to see the bigger picture.

Why? He has been a class act all the way.
Not a great debater, but a good guy.

Good for him!

I respect him a little more with this. Well said and I hope the state sees it the same way.

He did it near instantly last night. Good for him for not pulling a Stacey Abrams.
