After the disaster that was Insider Trading Barbie, I am uncertain the GOP would take a chance on another political novice for this seat.  And Walker is a carpetbagger and arguably has even more baggage than she did.

That said, I think the media will push for a Warnock vs. Walker contest.  The clash between two high-profile black candidates would make for a good media storyline.

The Kelly Loeffler campaign certainly feels like it was disastrous because it was so grotesque to us, but the facts don't actually bear that out. Loeffler showed substantial skill in beating Doug Collins in a race whose fundamentals did not favor her, and then in the runoff she performed exactly as well as David Perdue, the supposed strong candidate. Obviously her campaign was a failure in the sense that she didn't win, but Perdue didn't win, either; her defeat wasn't because of ineptitude specifically on the part of her case but instead because of structural factors. If she hadn't performed an about-face and voted to accept Georgia's electoral votes the day after her defeat, she'd be well positioned to win future Republican nominations.

She did worse than Purdue.  He lost by 1% and she lost by 2%.  That's why Warnock's win was called first.

You tacitly admit she is now poorly positioned to win in the future.   That is a sign her campaign was a disaster.

Walker is as good at running away from the debate stage as he was from linebackers, lol.

This article is poorly written clickbait. Walker has not backed out of the October 14th debate which is going to be broadcasted by the centrist/right leaning News Nation. He's just not showing up for an October 16th debate that he never agreed to in the first place.

Yeah, it's just a coincidence Walker dropped out as these latest allegations broke.  Roll Eyes Any fool can see he is running SCARED.
