Seriously, Though

What do you have to lose?

 I get that winning either Senate seat in Georgia is a heavy lift, and winning both is even more so. Also, I don't trust polls showing the Democrats narrowly ahead.  If there is one thing the latest election has shown, it is that polls under state Republican support by several points.

I am, nonetheless, cautiously optimistic that at least one Democrat can win and maybe (maybe!) we can persuade one Senate Republican to bolt the party and caucus with the Democrats.  

Two things are driving me here.  

One is the Trump in particular and Republicans in general are engaging in extraordinarily self-destructive behavior.  Trump vetoing the defense bill and threatening to veto COVID relief, and Mitch McConnell blocking any further relief are a great campaign ad for Democrats.  Trump caught on tape trying to rig the Georgia election might yet persuade one Senator to jump parties.  Lin Woods (not working for Trump directly, but clearly in his corner) saying thing so far out there that he has to assure us that he is not insane is testing the theory that the nuttier Republicans are, the better they do.

But the other thing is Kelly Loeffler's increasingly shrill and hysterical attacks on Raphael Warnock.  Attack ads work up to a point, but they lose effectively when they start to smell like panic.  And these ones seriously reek.
