[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What happened here? No mention of how miserably she lost. Previous posts were all praises she should the next president.  Media has forgotten her completely.[/quote]

Kemp was popular with moderates because he stood up for democracy in 2020.  Raffensburger is the mot popular person in Georgia for the same reason.  Sucks for Abrams but it wS good for the country that Kemp did what he did in 2020.  She was never going to win this go round after that.  The middle of the electorate rewarded Kemp for his good deeds.[/quote]

+1.  I think this is right -- the timing was bad for her.  Also, she suffers from Gen X curse.  I knew her many years ago and she is a really nice, genuine person who is also super smart.  How often do those people end up in politics?  Almost never.  But even though she should have been a rising star in the D party starting 20+ years ago, she was not, because the Boomers never moved over to make room for the Gen Xers.  As a result, we have our choice between super-duper old Boomers, and people that really don't have the depth of political experience.  We've got a major donut hole problem in the talent.  Gen Y has sharper elbows, though, and I think they are pushing for the experience that Gen X didn't get.[/quote]
