    The GOP is very good at taking any rising Democratic star and trying to brand them with a negative narrative they can make stick. It's been their successful playbook for the most part. That's by their own admission.

    She might actually be a worse president, than our current one…. If that’s even possible….

    Ought to make it one of the most horrendous tickets ever and put Beto in as her VP….

    Abrams has been incredibly successful with almost everything that she's done. She's been a great help to the party as far as organizing, campaigning and motivating people. She obviously has many in the GOP scared of her, so that shows that she might stand a decent chance of winning.

    Yes, know her views and heard her speak many times…. my personal view is I think we can find much better options for the Democratic Party.

    I know she and you don’t believe it, but she lost a governor race already, so not sure what incredible success she has done… I don’t think the “right’ is scared of her, but if you want to believe that, more power to you.

    Response I was waiting for the typical little mind on the left:

    1. Insult / Put down those that you don’t agree with.

    2. Spread lies, till it’s believable - at least in your own mind.

    3. Rinse and Repeat….

    Correct she did lost that race. She then put her talents to work getting out the vote and produced upsets in different elections. That was extremely successful and her stock has been rising ever since.

    She also outperformed expectations even in the race that she lost.

    One way to know that the right is afraid of her is how much effort they are putting out to try and tarnish and discredit her. But it doesn't seem to be working too well.

    Successful entrepreneur, successful author, successful lawyer (deputy city attorney of Atlanta), won the governor's race for Georgia (Kemp who was her opponent also oversaw the election and illegally purged voters who then were unable to vote on election day because they were never notified they had been purged.)

    She is a successful business woman without getting 40 million from her daddy, and never had to declare bankruptcy, not less 5 times.

    You should get to know her before dismissing her without knowing anything.

    She lost a governor's race as a democrat....

    In Georgia. That is pretty normal.
