The grandson of former President Jimmy Carter, who is running for governor in Georgia, suggested Monday that if he wins the gubernatorial race he will not stop the state from issuing license plates featuring the Confederate battle flag.

There are no cries of racism because they know he’s lying.

That's the democrat strategy. They can say what they please and conservatives can STFU.

On a related note, Pat Sajak has stirred up the lavender mafia by tweeting that he was coming out of the closet as a straight man

Typical Southern demotard tactic. Throw an innocuous bone to conservatives or traditionalists and hope that it fools enough of them. meh.....

I know Deal is not as good as he could be, but let’s stop Jason and Nunn, too.

New GA Senate poll GOP primary

(Insider Advantage): David Perdue (R) 19%, Jack Kingston 15%, Karen Handel 13%, Paul Broun 11%, Phil Gingrey 9%

In this poll it least, Karen Handel, clearly the best choice if only by default, is in better position that she had been in others.

Poll for the CD-11 GOP primary has BOOB Barr making the runoff

(Landmark/Rosetta) St Sen Barry Loudermilk 25%, ex-Cong Bob Barr 23%, businesswoman Tricia Pridemore 11%, St Rep Ed Lindsey 8%

Try not to hold back when expressing yourself. Holding it in can cause ulcers.
