And you are proposing to run a candidate that will drag all the GA dems out of office except those that live in deep blue districts? Sanford Bishop will be gone with Obama on the ticket.
Sanford Bishop's district is majority black and he probably wont even have a Republican opponent. Obama will boost black turnout in GA-08, giving Jim Marshall the extra boost he needs to win.
It is not majority black. It has lots of blacks in it but it is not majority. The only majority black districts are around Atlanta.
With Obama on the ticket, blacks would make up a majority of the vote on election day.
Nope. They won't be the majority. It will be the same as always.
Nope, Jim Marshall will be gone with Obama at the top of the ticket. His district is about 45% black and it won't be enough for him to keep his seat. He'll lose 45/55 to his opponent with Obama on the top of the ticket.
Well, Trauner would lose WY if Hillary was on top of the ticket.. Scott Kleeb would have no chance in Nebraska... so, it balances out...
Udall will lose in CO if Hillary is at the top of the ticket, as will Baron Hill in IN-09, Nancy Boyda in KS-02, Gabby Giffords in AZ-08, Anne Kirkpatrick in AZ-01, and possibly even Dennis Moore in KS-03.
Considering the fact that Obama lost AZ then he'll lose those AZ seats too.
Marshall almost lost in 2006 because of low black turnout. That will not be a problem with Obama at the top of the district. Hillary Clinton will bring out those longtime Newt Gingrich style Hillary haters in droves and pull Marshall under.
You are wrong time and again about this. The GOP will define the race as black vs. white. And the majority whites will vote for Marshall's opponent in mass. Obama is a candidate that loses 1/3 of the democrats down here in GA. How does that help down ticket races? When you have Democrats who won't vote for him.
