It is heartwarming to see what strong ethics and proven leadership can do.  The Peach State has come a long way since Jimmy Carter.

[Adlai Stevenson]

Interesting to see a poll of the Democratic Primary - there are some surprisingly strong and attractive candidates running for the chance to lose to Saxby Chambliss, oddly.  Its like in 2006, when the Secretary of State and Lieutenant Governor both ran to lose to Sonny Perdue. 

[HardRCafé]

It still surprises me Mark Taylor did so badly, as he was all in all an excellent candidate.  Georgia just really loves Sonny Perdue.

Cathy Cox, on the other hand…

Rand Knight would get my vote in the Democratic primary

I'd be split between Dale Cardwell and Vernon Jones, as HRC well knows...

[DownWithTheLeft]

Rand Knight?  I never heard of another "Rand" besides Rand Paul.

[Democratic Hawk]

Rand Knight?  I never heard of another "Rand" besides Rand Paul.

Full name: Franklin Randolph Knight, Jr.

Jones is attacking Knight over his voter registration.

Jones is attacking Knight over his voter registration.

Does it have legs or is Jones making something out of nothing?

[HardRCafé]

Turnout is supposed to be so low, almost anything could happen.

Conventional wisdom is a runoff between Martin and Jones.  Knight has a chance; Cardwell had a chance; Lanier never had a chance.  But again, almost anything could happen.

[Adlai Stevenson]

They should have held this Primary at the same time as the Presidential one.

Anyone but Jones

Why?

[Adlai Stevenson]

They should have held this Primary at the same time as the Presidential one. 

Why?

To generate higher turnout, to make things neater, I assume additional money had to be spent on a rather pointless Primary now (Which no-one showed up to vote in).

[HardRCafé]

There were races all over the state, just not glamorous ones.  Our sheriff got clobbered, as did our boy on the school board.

Yes, but if all the primaries were in the same than the presidential one, turnout would be higher and more persons would vote for the sheriff election and the school board election. More people voting=Opinion who is more representative of the town/city/county/township/schoolboard....

[HardRCafé]

More people voting=Opinion who is more representative of the town/city/county/township/schoolboard....

Around here, more people voting = more representative of people who have never heard of any of the candidates.

And it is "Chambliss," not "Chamblis."
