Republican Party.

"Gainesville Times: The news likely shreds any chance the lieutenant governor had of landing endorsements from either Tippins or Hill, who both viciously attacked Cagle in the primary race."

“.... entrapping individuals is less than honorable and ethical,” Miller told The Times “and his character should be measured accordingly.” ... Meanwhile, ... Hill said in a statement. “I worked hard ... to advance conservative reforms like school choice ... It’s sad to see those same policies being sold to benefit a career politician’s political ambitions.” ... Sen. Butch Miller, a supporter of Cagle and the president pro tem of the state Senate, called into question the ethics of Tippins ...



As it happens, of course, we do have a very good candidate for governor of Georgia and are kind of proud of her. What a shame Cagle isn't the Repub candidate yet, but only in the middle of a nasty runoff race for the nomination.

If our candidate, Stacey Abrams does win, still a long shot but maybe a tad shorter, she will be the first woman governor in Georgia and the first black woman governor in the nation. But she's already made history by coming this far.
