Five Democrats attending the Obama rally in Atlanta weighed in on the question of whether the former president would help boost the Democratic vote in Georgia.repeatedly took aim at Herschel Walker, the Republican Senate nominee in Georgia who’s challenging Democratic Sen. Raphael Warnock in a crucial battleground state Senate showdown.
"I am here to ask you to vote," the former president told approximately 7,000 people packed into an arena steps away from Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport. And Obama was introduced to the stage by Warnock, the pastor at Atlanta’s Ebenezer Baptist Church, where Martin Luther King Jr. once preached. The latest surveys suggest that it’s a margin of error race between Warnock and Walker.The former president noted that"Herschel Walker was a heck of a football player.. one of the best running backs of all time."
The former president charged that"in the case of Rev. Warnock’s opponent, there is very little evidence that he’s taken any interest, bothered to learn anything about, or displayed any kind of information towards public service, or volunteer work, or helping people in any way. At least we really don’t know about it. And that does make you suspect.
"Get Obama out of here unless he want to come here and he can run for Senate too. I would beat him too," Walker boasted.
