I think if Georgia's willing to elect someone like Nathan Deal, who even I didn't support, I think it's going to be very difficult for them to take back the Governor's Mansion for at least a decade, barring scandal.

Still wishing Handel was in there now...

How does a Democrat win a Georgia Governor's race?

They don't.  They're Democrats

Lol at who said run Roy Barnes.  He's a loser

He won in the past and came, as far as I'm aware, unexpectedly close to Deal in an incredibly Republican year. It's not likely that Georgia will see another Democratic governor in 2014, but to pretend that Georgia is as monolithically Republican as it used to be Democratic is facile.

Huh? How was it unexpectedly close?

I was in Georgia during the primary and for a while after - that race was considered originally to be a toss-up, and many thought Barnes was favor. Deal actually pulled away in the last few months.
