KEMP gets zero credit from me for doing the right thing WHEN HE SHOULD HAVE in 2020. Let's not forget all of his voter suppression in the election he was overseeing while ALSO RUNNING in that election. He's garbage who manages to do the right thing once in awhile.

It's revolting and makes plain the misogynistic streak this country still has for women.

Oh, PLEASE. You call it "misogynistic" when Dem women are criticized - but no doubt you have zero concerns about misogyny when you tear Republican women apart - Susan Collins, Nikki Haley, Kristi Noem, Kim Reynolds, Liz Cheney, etc.

What's truly revolting is you feigning outrage when you do *exactly the same thing* to conservative women. Hypocrite.

I don't see that at all. She got a ton of votes. What she did not have was the resume, personality, and drive to beat an incumbent who was done a pretty good job. Tough comment whent here is a woman VP and many Republican women that could be in the mix.

The message of this election is that both sides must put forth better candidates. Republicans would have won the Senate even with the abortion ruling if normal Republicans had been on the ballot. Dems would have faired better if not for their own bad candidates.

Actually, I do find it misogynistic on some level. The difference, as you quite well know, however, is they are dishing it out in spades. You've picked some moderate Republicans there, relatively speaking. Laurent Broebart, MTG, Sarah Palin, and others are quite awful bullies -often commenting on the looks of other female politicians- and so the scorn heaped on them is usually because of that.

Obviously, you have read the comments on this and other threads about her. Commenting on more than her platform, and in a really nasty way. The type that is reserved for female politicians.

Amazing to me that some of you folks are so deliberately obtuse.

She was a great candidate and her resume is actually better than Kemp's. She has a great personality, although she is actually pretty intense. With that said, what I've heard from people I know, is that she was too liberal/progressive when it came to economic policy and small business. That's fair. It's also true that there are many people who will not vote for a woman.

Can you guys just admit that SA ran a crap campaign? She literally insulted Geogia and then wore the colors of opposing teams on game days. Football is a religion in Georgia. Trashing the state and opposing the Bulldogs is a losing strategy.

Plus the ending of her last romance novel was not at all satisfying Too much of a cliff hanger.
