What Georgians are seeing

Whoever makes Senator Rafael Warnock's election ads has a wonderful sense of humor -- and smart tactical sense.

Last cycle, Warnock proclaimed how much he loves puppies.

This time around he has to run against Georgia's beloved football hero, Hershel Walker. For fans of the Georgia Bulldogs, the Heisman-winning running back is close to a demi-god. But the Trump-endorsed GOP pick has NO qualifications to be a U.S. Senator. He's a serial domestic abuser whose ex-wife has charged he choked her. He has struggled with a mental health diagnosis of multiple personality disorder. Speaking about gun violence, he's downright incoherent. 

Warnock goes straight at Walker's strength in this ad, bravely making fun of himself on Walker's athletic turf. Warnock insists he is the Senator the people of the state need, one who is representing Georgians. 

It's a strong ad and Warnock is a fine comedic performer.
