Perdue will win. Democrats are WAY too optimistic about Nunn, who'll ultimately lose 55%-45%. It may go to a runoff though.

To answer the question, Nunn will be crushed,  along with Grimes.

If Nunn loses, she'll go for Isakson's seat in two years, whether he retires or not.

She won't. Her funds would be exhausted by then, and going up against a well-funded, popular incumbent in an (atlas) Blue state during an election year is much harder than going up against a bruised opponent who just survived a competitive primary. Nunn is likely to lose that latter contest anyway.

Do any of you think Barrow would go for Isakson's seat?

Doubtful. He didn't go for the open seat (even though he would have been a much stronger candidate than Nunn), so he'll probably not want to challenge an incumbent.

Let's say he retires, since he is about the same age as Saxby. That's a fun name. What then?

Part of the reason Saxby retired was because he would have faced a strong primary challenge if he didn't. Isakson, who is much more popular and much more conservative will not face that problem. But if he doesn't, the whole race will be a repeat of 2014's scenario, which no one, especially Isakson, wants. He'll run.
