I do not believe Walker will win.

I know many are voting for Walker because of party and an even split in the Senate---but I could not hold my nose tight enough to pull that lever

They have called it for Warnock. Although I don't see him as a great political "doer" Walker would have just been one more idiot wondering about the halls of Congress---which already has far too many
Added in edit: I watched Walker's concession speech last night. I got the sense that he was actually relieved and looking forward to going back to Texas. He was gracious and for the first time that I heard him speaking, I could fully understand what he was saying.

I remember hearing that when we took the oath of enlistment, our brains were automatically removed so we could follow orders easily...At the moment of separation, our brains were reinstalled...Maybe entering and leaving politics has the same procedure...Originally Posted by Dave Grubb

I'm going to go on thin ice here since someone will likely take offense---where there is none intended
That said, some black people (Obama is one), who when speaking to a predominantly black audience alters their speech patterns. I'm not sure that it is jive talk but it mimics the pronunciation and tempo of their speaking. At times, it can be difficult for an old white boy to understand.
Ok----here come the pc police

The entire Walker episode reminders me of a poorly made comedy movie.. straight to video and never made money..
When the actor/comedian appears on a talk show, this movie is never mentioned..
