Senator Herschel Walker? It could happen

ATLANTA — The newly blue state of Georgia could be getting a wave of Bulldog red.

Herschel Walker, the University of Georgia legend, could run for U.S. Senate next year on the Republican ticket. And if he does, he’d have the formidable duo of his own illustrious legacy and a motivated, vengeful former President Donald Trump clearing a path for him.

Walker, 59, led the Georgia Bulldogs to their most recent national championship in 1980 as a freshman. He won the Heisman two years later and dominated college football so thoroughly that his name still ranks atop most best-ever lists. He’s wound through a range of pursuits since his days in Athens — NFL player, Olympic bobsledder, MMA fighter — but for many Georgians, he’ll always be a Bulldog.

Georgia’s 2022 Senate race will be a crucial one, meaning that anyone who runs for office against Democratic incumbent Raphael Warnock will instantly become a national figure. Warnock recently won the seat vacated by Johnny Isakson in 2019, so his seat is up for election next year, rather than the customary six years.


also from the article:

Walker has not yet indicated he would run, but on Fox News this past Sunday indicated he and his family were giving it deep consideration.

“I'm very honored that they would consider me running for the Senate,” Walker told Fox News’ Maria Bartiromo. “My family, we’re still going through this process of praying and really considering it. And at the same time, I take it very serious.”

and also:

Walker has been an outspoken supporter of Trump and Republican principles for years. In his most recent Fox News interview, Walker hit on hot-button issues like protesting athletes, whom he doesn’t believe should be on the U.S. Olympic team, as well as Major League Baseball moving its All-Star Game out of Atlanta over the election law. Walker supports the law’s mandate requiring more comprehensive identification to vote.

“Having an ID is a basic thing you’ve got to have,” Walker said on Fox News. “For people to continue to talk about this idea is sort of appalling. Why are they not helping people to get an ID? That’s a basic thing people need to survive.” That’s a message that resonates well with Republican audiences.

The fact that Walker is a Black Republican also factors into calculations about his political viability. Georgia is currently enmeshed in a political crisis over its new election law, drafted by state Republican legislators immediately after Trump’s loss and signed into law by Kemp soon after the Senate runoffs.

Hershel Walker is a class act.

Go Dawgs....

Sic 'em...

Pass. Not voting for another RINO just because he's black. We need representation not more party politics. Typical, really. They can't own up to the fact that they lost because the candidate was awful? Oh, no. They have to blame race.

They lost because libertarians weren't having it. They'll lose again unless they start representing the people of Georgia.

MAGA

He wont be intimidated by the whining left , that is for sure.

I am a long time Bulldog fan. My brother, Jeff Lewis was starting linebacker for the Junkyard Dogs in 1976 and '77.
I can remember listening to Larry Munson on the radio for the first game of the season in 1980. Herschel was a Freshman, and a Nobody. He didn't even start that first game vs Tennessee.

And in the fourth quarter Herschel ran one for 40 yards and the Bulldogs won. I can still remember Larry, "Herschel Walker off of left tackle! He breaks another tackle.
Herschel for the winning touchdown!! And he is only a freshman!!!"

Georgia won and Herschel was a legend after the first game.

They lost because as Biden said, he and zero had developed the greatest vote rigging scheme in history and because the CCP was involved in it.

Sheesh, the suckers even explain the election fraud to people and they go looking for causes on Mars. Unreal.

Man he is pretty far from being a Rino...

Hunter ?

In the end, he won't run & GA sure as hail ain't a great state anymore.

MM

Always came across as decent IMHO

Yes?

At best they'll trade him to Minnesota.

I have to believe he has an excellent chance of beating the commie preacher. There is that voter fraud thing though.

You mean the suitcases of votes under the table, just in case?

But SCOTUS says no fraud anywhere....................so they don't have to decide anything.

MM

How do you know he's not legit? He sure says what I am thinking most of the time. He must be a good faker.

Walker is the real deal.A Trump Republican.

I promise you if Maxine Waters wants "confrontational" #34 will plant her. God forbid Maxine asks for Herschel's sisters both are better athletes than he is. I've seen worse candidates win.

You sure did this country a lot of good, sitting on your hands, no doubt.

Truth: You don't like his skin color.

SCOTUS is rife with traitors. They are pathetc cowards.

The summer Olympics were being held in America a few years back. They do a run with the torch where hundreds of runners each carry the torch for a mile or two. This run of the torch goes on for several weeks and covers hundreds of miles.
Herschel was going to be one of the runners. Some group or another was protesting the Olympics and they were threatening to attack the torch runners. Herschel was taking Mixed Martial Arts at the time.
And Herschel said "They are welcome to come and try to take the torch from me. I wish them luck."

I'd vote for him.

Well, he was the last bulldawg to win something so he has that going for him

He is not a RINO. He is not a politician. He has high character. He has been outspoken (not afraid) on cultural issues. That right there is better than 90% of Republicans.

Herschel is one of the good guys

He would be better (Republican) than the black preacher (Democrat).Walker would get my vote if i had to choose between the 2.

All the Republicans are gonna vote for him anyway and his name recognition might bring in some low information idiots uhh I mean independents whose votes count just the same.

Good chance he will win a fair election if we have one of those.

Libertarians and independents for the most part are weasels who cherry pick from both sides in this day and age.
Basically for their own limited self interest ( usually benjamins stuff).

They wont make a stand on one side or other.
Non confrontational types.....
They blend comfortably into the back ground.

Remember ....
They gave us Billy Boy Clinton after all.........
