The idea that thousands of "concerned christians" will vote for someone they claim to believe has committed murder for hire is glorious in pushing that religion to extinction. Probably not a surprise but that is all I get out of this broken man.
That outlook would be fine for a republican. But christians are supposedly called by God to be above that. Which is my point. If you claim to hold truth in your hand you don't back murderers and liars. Why would you when the God is the one ultimately in control?
In other words, every christian who feels the need to back Walker doesn't actually believe in christianity.
I'm pretty sure most christians have no issue saying Warnock doesn't deserve their vote. True ones will say Walker doesn't either. At least a few actually have faith in an all powerful god and don't feel the need to justify backing a literal murderer.
Happy to support hypocrites as long as they help advance the ability to pass morality laws (which never work), rather than work to reduce the need for abortions as a whole.
As long as you get your desired ends, you don't care about the means.
I'm still miffed that no prominent Georgia conservative saw fit to run for the Senate seat. Someone with name recognition and integrity would have been a shoo-in for election. The only conclusion I can reach is that conservatives really aren't good at (or interested in) politics. They generally are individualists who do things their way. Most elected Republicans are career politicians - shape shifters who adjust and squirm and wiggle and contort to the extent necessary to gain a majority of the votes. Pretty much the same as most elected democrats who play to a different audience.
I will vote for Walker simply because I believe the results will be better if he is elected. There would be one more obstacle to the current administration's harmful agenda.
With regard to Trump, it's clear he is not likely to lead the Republican party to victory in the next presidential election. There are few Republicans who have wide appeal among independents and who can turn out Republican voters. It's time to start putting them (instead of Trump) in the limelight.
Parties can do due diligence all they want, but if their chosen candidate is knocked out during the primary then the blame for bad candidates then falls on the primary voters.
I wonder when principled conservatives will start to treat the Trumpist/MAGA group as the cancer they are, and start taking action to deal with them via excision or "chemo" (vote for the non-MAGA candidate whomever they are).

I'd argue the one who's lying the least, and will do the least harm to our democracy.

I don't agree with how James Carville said this (as it's off-putting), but there's likely more than a grain of truth in it: https://www.newsweek.com/herschel-walker-dr-mehmet-oz-november-primaries-james-carville-stupid-people-1748996
Regarding Walker: I think Dana Loesch really helps show the cynicism and naked desire for power at play in the GOP. https://twitter.com/DLoesch/status/1577348109704871960?s=20&t=UOJx3sguNeiqWQRQ-RiafQ
