I think Kemp wins big. Still, I live in a diverse area with a lot of African Americans. The primary election was PACKED with African American voters. Abrams is doing a really solid job igniting the Democratic base and getting African American voters out. Still, that is only going to carry urban counties like Douglas, Dekalb, Fulton, Muscogee, Chatham, and Richmond Counties. The Dems keep pointing at the 2008 Obama election where Ga went Democrat. Those days are over. I think Kemp will win with something like 55%.

I will take a repeat of the 2008 election (Georgia didn't go democrat).

Only an idiot would point to 2008 as a reason for optimism for the Democratic party in Georgia (not calling you an idiot. But whomever you heard... I'm guessing Abrams... touting that as optimism)

That didn't happen. Georgia went for McCain, and again for Romney in the reelection. Where the frick do you get your news and history from?

What the frick is wrong with you? Where are you from? What grade are you in?

Why the frick does it even matter what color people are?

Get immigration under control, stop letting foreign countries rip us off, stop wasteful government spending and lower taxes for working people, and mind your own fricking business and live your life. Why does that have to be a white thing?

It isn't. It's an American thing.

Identity politics is on the way out, further and further with every day that goes by that our country gets stronger for everybody.

How does a democrat argue with that?

How do you argue against the lowest black unemployment in the country's history? How do you argue against the denuclearization of North Korea? How do you argue against getting Nato to pay into their own militaries to their previously pledged levels? How do you argue against organized immigration? How do you argue against the fall of ISIS? I could go on, but I think that's enough for you to digest at the moment.

I already anticipate what your reply will be. I'm Charlotte. You are a fly.
