She’s not her dad. If her last name weren’t Nunn, she would not even be in this election.
Ditto Jimmy Carter’s grandson running for governor of Georgia this year.
I would argue one of the reasons she's doing so well is that so many Georgia conservatives keep gushing about what a wonderful "conservative and patriotic" Senator her dear ol' daddy was, and ignoring the fact he was pro-abortion, pro-Obama, pro-illegal, a gun grabber, etc.
Whenever we call them on it, they're reaction is always "Well I NEVER said he was better than a Republican! Just that he was conservative by DEMOCRAT standards! He voted 30-40% conservative which is better than other Democrats!"
Funny, if they're only comparing him to "other Democrats", they sure seem happier when Zig Zag Zell and San Nunn the gun grabber were in power than the "RINOs" elected more recently who CONSISTENTLY vote 80-90% conservative. They NEVER have anything good to say about them, but they fawn over Democrats who voted to put Tom Daschle in power (it's not like Zig Zag Zell replaced a Ted Kennedy type RAT, which would be reason to gloat. Instead, he replaced one of the Senate's MOST conservative members, and when's the last time you heard a Georgia freeper heap praise on Paul Coverdell the way they worship Zig Zag?)
I have to wonder about "conservatives" who are upset that a 40% conservative RAT is replaced with an 85% conservative Republican, and never miss or even mention the 95% conservative Republicans who preceded the 40% conservative RATs.
The country has really slipped over the precipice. We now have the 2nd, if not the 3rd generation of The Ruling Class in our own country. Just like old Rome.
