With Warnock's win, the first thought that popped in my head after realizing that fact is how Manchin must be so soooo pissed off about that.
I think he's probably happy - if he wants to run for re-election he now gets to vote against all sorts of Democratic things to bolster his independent bonafides.

Another Walker Gem:

I dont even know what a pronoun is.
Can you imagine what kind of a senator he would have been? The kind of people he would have had in his office/team? The level of disfunction and chaos would have been astronomical. No half way sane person would want a part of that.

Herschel's fucked lol
Interesting article. It also mentions Walker disclosed his net worth between $29 million and $62 million with an annual income of $4 million, yet he NEVER contributed a dime to his campaign. I wonder how many of these political clowns are like this (Trump certainly is). One of the main reasons I am extremely reluctant to contribute to any political campaign (the other is that your email address/phone number are redistributed to dozens of other fundraisers).

Whether Herschel's fucked depends on whether any federal or GA authorities are willing to go after him for the wire fraud. I'm not going to hold my breath waiting for this.

He wasn't a serious candidate in the sense that he's a fucking imbecile that can't construct even a remotely intelligent sentence about anything related to the job.

The fact that he got that many votes just shows his constituency is also not serious.

That is very true about Herschel, but his constituency is actually very serious. Seriously fucked up, evil and/or ignorant, and their agenda is a really really serious thing and seriously a threat to all that is good and decent.

Herschel may be a moron but he's no idiot.

Looks like he did a bad, bad thing.

It's OK. He's got a GQP Membership Card.

Among the benefits is, and I'm quoting from the acceptance letter here:

- It's not ok to do shit to us, that's very bad. Also, fuck your feels.
- It's ok to be racist
- It's ok to be a male chauvinist
- It's not lying or cheating if we do it
- Vampires are cool

That word "serious" looks out of place in your statement. He wasn't a qualified candidate, certainly. He would have been a grifter and a tool. His constituency was pathetic.
