Perdue has been on the defensive about his pharma investments since the race started.

(6,682 posts)Marquita Bradshaw. It was my honor to vote for her but, of course, she will lose by 40 points.
Tennessee is my home but I am just embarrassed that this is such a place of extreme righties.

(21,596 posts)Georgia is much more diverse than TN. TN is more like KY.
BTW, I grew up in TN, so I feel your pain. Hang in there.

Don't be afraid to call a crook a crook.
Awesome. Just awesome. Perdue can't even look at him, he's so mad. Flawlessly presented and argued statement by Jon Ossoff.

(12,151 posts)I listened in on his conference call the other day very poised, and responsive & empathetic to citizens. I hope hes my Senator soon, along with Rev. Warnock. The current loathsome twosome of Georgia senators make me sick.

(6,972 posts)From what I've seen of him, not just in tonight's final debate, he gets FUNKY and gets DOWN.
kellytore
(182 posts)He tried to be too polite to Karen Handle and now he has taken his gloves off and attacked Purdue for what he is, a sleazy crook.
ecstatic
(32,648 posts)where they have him "threatening" the GOP made me love him even more! lol! They don't realize that ad probably helps him. Finally, someone with fiery passion!

BTW - This Perdue is related to one of our other worthless governors, Sonny "FREE AT LAST" Perdue.

(11,949 posts)Go at them hard! Especially in a state like Georgia. Nothing to lose.
Tiger8
(432 posts)I watched Ossoff burn him, then circle around and tear off the flesh, until there was nothing left.

(10,667 posts)Holy cow. That is one eloquent speaker. And so in control of his own emotions. Really something.

(2,113 posts)They are smart, idealistic, well-spoken and absolutely brutal in their takedowns. We're gonna be just fine with these guys leading our futures. I really hope Ossoff wins.

(139 posts)That's what all Dems need to do!
ecstatic
(32,648 posts)Georgia's version of AOC. That's if we can just get through this election!
I saw the previous debate, and he kicked ass for that too.
Also, I love that part of his platform is banning senators from trading stocks. I agree with that 100%.

(31,221 posts)losing issue for Repukes? If, and when Biden wins, I expect a resurgence of the Tea Party, or QAnon, or whatever the hell they're calling themselves these days. But I hope the Dems will use the first six months very wisely.
calimary
(81,109 posts)That was MAGNIFICENT!
Mike Nelson
(9,944 posts)... that debate on C SPAN. This was only one of several great moments. There are many young Dems like this... and the era of Crooked Donald has inspired them. A generation of them, all over the country - "red" states included.

(12,409 posts)He's very smart to list the specific conditions affected. People will say, "Hey, that's me!"
CottonBear
(21,596 posts)I got to vote for both Ossoff and Warnock, in addition to Biden-Harris and all of the other Democrats down the ballot!
I am absolutely thrilled with our candidates!
