One campaign stop for now, but if they push the kool aid that it's winnable she'll be there more, at the expense of states she HAS to win.

Ah, I didn't know you harbored the impression that she was a child who needed her hand held.

And, as far as we know, it could be winnable. The problem is, if you don't try, it's definitely not.

As neither of us are her campaign manager, though, I think we should probably leave that decision up to her and her team.

Georgia isn't winnable and I'll tell you why...

Biden only won it in 2020 because the covid restrictions enabled more vote by mail and massively increased voter turnout.

Those same restrictions aren't in play this time. Lower turnout = Republican win.

Outside of 2020, you have to go back to 1992 to see a Democratic win in Georgia and that was only because they saw allegiance with a fellow Southerner on the ballot.
