Lol the Georgia Republican lieutenant governor is a single issue voter, no election deniers. He’s been very vocal he won’t ever vote Walker. He waited in line today for a hour. Looked at the ballot. In his head, this is the most depressing ballot he’s ever seen. He left the ballot blank

Fuck that, if he’s really against election deniers, he votes against them.

The Walker-deal essentially destroyed the Dallas Cowboys in the long run.

They sold out the team's future on a "star" running back they didn't even need when they already had Tony Dorsett on the roster with predictable results.

In fact you could make a reasonable argument that Walker both ultimately screwed his team and cost Tom Landry his job.
LOL do you even know football? The Cowboys traded AWAY Walker in what turned out to be one of the most lopsided trades in NFL history. The draft capital they received in return is what built the mid 1990s dynasty. This trade is so famous that it boggles the mind you got it back asswards.

My fear if Walker loses, my fear is watching Lindsey Graham sobbing uncontrollably on Fox News. "DON'T YOU DARE VOTE AGAINST MY BOYFRIEND."

Thank you for highlighting that. Holy shit, that's about the most blatant football related bullshit post since eits "accidentally" confusing NFL players with cheerleaders when he tried to claim he was the official chiro for the Slurs. Well a close 2nd would be Zin's claim for years that Kaepernick wasn't being discriminated against, literally right up til the point the NFL settled with him over it.

I forgot all about the runoff today and seeing it here made me realize it was happening.

It doesn't matter who wins, after all, Walker's actions and what he stands for are just a perception of bad behavior. It doesn't matter who wins.

I genuinely do not understand why you guys sit around and look at partial election results.

As an alternate suggestion my friend said I should watch Only Murders In The Building. It’s great.

That was a fun show. Selena Gomez can't act but otherwise it's lighthearted fun.

I watched the first episode of Wednesday today. Very well done and looking forward to the next. Then I shot a lot of people in BF2042. Then I checked in here and realized an election was happening.

From NY Times:

With Warnock’s re-election in the books, 2022 is the first midterm since 1934 that the party in power successfully defended every incumbent Senate seat, according to the Democrats’ Senate Majority PAC. :p

His victory also makes him the first Southern Senate Democrat to win re-election since Mary Landrieu of Louisiana did it in 2008.

Oh, but Walker had some really good ideas, what a shame:

“A werewolf can kill a vampire, did you know that?” Mr. Walker, the Republican nominee for Senate in Georgia, asked supporters in an Atlanta suburb, telling a story about a film he had recently watched to make a point about having faith. “I never knew that. So I didn’t want to be a vampire anymore. I wanted to be a werewolf.” :D

Bring out the banjos it's going to be dueling subpoenas. I just found out with a 51 seat majority the Dems can launch investigations with subpoena power. They couldn't do that when it was just 50-50. So I learned something while sitting in this chair all day, retired.

And the competing investigations can set up a revolving movement of subpoenaed witnesses from the House to the Senate and back and forth. They could have shuttles underground or in shuttle paths to transport them from Republican hearings to Senate hearings. Well I think they've had shuttles for years but still.

Forgot this edit: hey what about an investigation that questions the validity of another investigation? With the intent of halting the competing investigation across The Hill (meaning the Senate or House.) Good TV coming up beginning in January.

As a Georgia resident I'll take all of the credit, y'all are welcome. Again.

LOOK AT THIS....
Walker appearing on Hannity Nov 22 2022.
This is sooo incredible, how it takes two Trump republicans to make sure and to watch over every Herschel Walker appearance. Dare Walker open his mouth and display his ignorance.
WTF...
This looks like some Charlie McCarthy puppet act. I bet Cruz or Lindsey has their arm up Walkers ass, pulling his strings. But more likely it is Lindsey considering that smile on Lindsey's face.

This reminds me of old slavery era where Cruz and Graham just purchased Walker off the auction block, and now they own him....
Amazing, simply amazing.
