One of the few bits of bad news for Republicans over the last couple of months was the Georgia Senate race, where the Democrat, Michelle Nunn, pulled into a tie with the Republican, David Perdue, after a 2005 deposition was revealed in which Mr. Perdue said that he was proud of his record of outsourcing.
But most polls over the last week or so show Mr. Perdue retaking a lead, with Ms. Nunn now trailing by about two or three percentage points.
Mr. Perdue’s gains come from white voters. He now leads Ms. Nunn by about 40 percentage points among whites, up from 37 points in the polls after Mr. Perdue’s outsourcing comments were published.
For all of the justifiable focus on the rapid pace of demographic change in Georgia, the reality was always that Ms. Nunn needed to come near 30 percent of the white vote to have a shot at breaking 50 percent, even under the most optimistic scenarios for black turnout. But the most recent polls give Ms. Nunn only around 25 percent of the white vote.

How great would it be if they all lost?
Congressman John Barrow (D) votes with Pelosi and Obama 80% of the time but tricks conservatives to voting for him because he is 100% against amnesty, every single vote.
The Dems would have won TN, NC and GA easily if they ran with Heath Shuler(D-NC)(running in TN instead), McIntyre and John Barrow in the senate races.
Even hit Boehner’s border bill.
The main critique of Allen is that he supported, and Barrow voted against, a supplemental appropriations bill passed in early August to focus on the children coming across the Mexican border. It included a lot of money for border security as well as about $200 million for temporary housing for the kids. In the ad’s retelling, that means Allen supports using “tax dollars to keep illegal immigrants in the United States.”
I am a lot more worried
about North Carolina.
In this case here, Nunn was safely around seven points ahead a month ago, with money still left to spend. If Nunn loses by more than three points, it’ll really be a major shock. But I would agree, if Georgia goes Republican....it’s more than a marginal win across the US.
Herman Cain is helping a lot. . . . .
Nunn is down four points in NBC's final poll of the race.
The minimum I want to see is a republican majority in the senate and a strong showing in state races.
But that is the minimum . Because I don’t just want to see the republicans win,
I WANT TO SEE THE DEMOCRATS TAKE A NUCLEAR GRADE BUTT WHIPPING.
I want to see the DNC headquarters and democrat campaign offices around the country look like Dresden, Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945.
Is that too much to ask after what Obama, Harry Reid and Nancy Pigliosi have done to America?
HELL NO!
Scott Brown is within a couple of points in NH, and closing.
All voters in the great state Georgia should turn out to vote tomorrow, Tuesday, November 4, 2014 to vote against “all” and every Democrat Party candidate, including, “Obamabot”, Democrat, Michelle Nunn, and with that action, completely destroy the entire “Obamabot” Democrat Party, politically, in the great state of Georgia, and.........at the same time, instantly make POTUS Obama an ineffective, useless, “LAME DUCK” POTUS!!! DESTROY the Obama, Democrat Party, politcally!!! Do it!!! SAVE OUR GREAT COUNTRY!!!
She’s definitely losing. The Democrats would not be exsanguinating themselves over those fake 40,000 NEW registrations they say Kemp lost if she weren’t.
“I want to see the DNC headquarters and democrat campaign offices around the country look like Dresden, Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945.”
Yes, yes, running around, wringing their hands, tearing their hair, renting their garments and asking the immortal question: WHY DO THEY HATE US????
That would be good. But like you, I’ll take the Senate for a win, etc.
Ping for later read.
Otherwise smart republicans sometimes say stupid s###.
Well within the margin of democrat voter fraud.
These are Nunns pathetic qualifications. >>>>
She has run a bunch of high powered charities and NGOs
She went to the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard
How does some idiot like this even come close to becoming a US Senator?
What are her qualifications...Nunn
Georgia must have a lot of blacks/Hispanics if Perdue is up 40 with whites but only 3 overall.
Atlanta and Dekalk County are majority black.
