If the Dems Win These Georgia Senate Races, Stacey Abrams Will Be a Shoo-in for Governor in 2022

Biden will announce her as his AG on January 6.

We need to keep her in Georgia.

Dems aren’t going to win those seats in Georgia, sadly.

What R3 said. If any elections are rigged, it’s those. No way rethugs will let this happen.

No one thought Georgia would flip for Biden back in November, but it did. That and coupled with Trump saying that these Georgia Senate races are "illegal and invalid " give me hope both seats will flip to the Democrats

That fear alone will make Georgians vote for the Republicans.

What the hell, R4? How did Joe Biden win Georgia if it was a matter of who the Republicans will let win?

I think one of these senators has to run again in 2022. They’re not both getting six year terms. I believe it’s the winner of the Warnock/Loeffler race who would have to run again in two years.

I daren’t hope.

Why does this fat ugly loser get so much media attention?

Boris's demonization of Stacey Abrams because of her race, weight and gender only works on the fringe base of Deplorables who would never vote for her in a million years.

It's not enough to maintain power for Republican crooks, Boris. Try harder.

R12 I forgot. Democrats never attack people based on their race, weight and gender. LMAO!

^^Fat, old, white, criminal republicans don't count

Since Trump's little phone call to the Georgia SoS Saturday begging to rig the election, all bets are off

I guess those on here who go on about how fat Mariah and Janet are are deplorables too.

I like Stacey, she doesn’t really play the identity politics game too cynically (unlike Kamala Harris). Also she doesn’t seem up herself and is evidently competent. She can get $20 from me if she does stand again.

I think Stacey Abrams is amazing!

R18 Why? Because she's a black Democrat?

R19

Have you been asleep the past 4 months?

R19 types stupid!

What she has done for Georgia is the best thing any politician has done in a while. She is phenomenal and anyone saying otherwise is a conservative asshat.

I'm not sure she'll get the Democratic nomination in Georgia again, quite frankly. I grew up there and regardless of who you are (black, white, purple), you very rarely get a second chance at an election that big. One of my middle school friends' fathers ran for a state rep position after he'd been county commissioner. He lost and then ran for a state senate seat. He lost and then tried to run for county commissioner again. He didn't even get the nomination and has laid low ever since. At some point, there's more power in being, say, the Democratic party chair of GA. If Stacey were going to run for something, she should've run in one of the Senate races and she'd probably--and quite literally--be elected a senator tomorrow. She held out too long for the veep nom that never happened.

She just needs to be very careful because the enraged GOP will throw everything they can at her, unfortunately.

I certainly agree with your latter point, R23—I’d feel much better about our chances tomorrow if it were Stacey Abrams and Jon Ossof on the ticket instead of Raphael Warnock. But I still think the Gov nom is hers if she wants it (and she undoubtedly does).

An Abrams / Ossoff Senate ticket seems stronger right now, but this is because of Stacey's efforts turning GA blue for the presidential election. So in essence, I am glad she did not gun for that senate seat.

I think she would be terrific as DNC chair. I would love to see her apply what her organization is doing in GA nationwide (accounting for state/regional differences of course).

I didn't like her very public thirst for the VP nomination, but she worked her ass off to win Georgia. She gets something good out of this; let's see.

Metropolitan Atlanta comprises more than half the population of the state of Georgia. The demographics are ever changing due to the constant massive growth from people moving in from outside the state and outside the south. As a lifelong Georgian of 67 years I can attest to one thing. Never assume things will stay the same here because they won't.

Yeah, a Senate run would’ve taken away from her work to get voters out.

Weight Watchers on line 3.

And that, R30, is the answer to how Stacey Abrams earned the enmity of DL: her waistline.

There's a special place in hell for people like the OP, who use positions from the privileged majority to harass, bully and denigrate the less fortunate.

I believe it involves being chained to a volcano beneath Nell Carter's butt cheeks, forced to rim her crack for eternity.

People like Stacey Abrams have been excluded from jobs, money and education their entire lives by the White Boys Club simply because of their race or gender. They can't afford to shop at Whole Foods. Yet the OP punches down on the less fortunate for access to the White Boys Club.

It's a pity the White Boys Club threw him out and he's now $4 million in debt, forced to troll like a chickenshit on an anonymous forum that doesn't pay him because every respectable platform has banned his ass.

Stacey Abrams doesn't intentionally hurt people.

Donald Trump does.

Donald Trump invited and deserves every manner of excoriation, from the dictators he shits his pants in front of to Dancing with Dictators in the first place. Rot in hell, r13.

OP, I think you're right. I want either one of the two to win to ensure stability (i.e. gridlock), but yes, if both Dems win, she'll be in a great position to be governor.

I liked Stacey when she was running for the Governor's office and supported her two / three years ago.

However, and maybe I'm wrong in my recollection, I seem to remember Stacey being the first politician to aggressively challenge an election result. Stacey came close, but didn't win the gubernatorial election, and I thought she dragged on her challenge a little too long. Didn't her challenge go on for a month.

She complained, she whined, she said the election was rigged and fraudulent. In my opinion, Stacey was the politician to open the door for overt overly long challenges to election results.

I hope she does run for and wins the Governor's office, but I'm not as much of a fan as I was a few years ago.

R32.. what in the hell are you talking about?

Stacey Abrams is a whipping post for Boris on DL. Read the history of Stacey Abrams threads. Read r13.
