8. Don't forget to correctly identify her as Republican Karen Handel.

“This is an example of the fundamental difference between a liberal and a conservative: I do not support a livable wage,” she said on Atlanta’s WSB-TV in response to a viewer question about raising the minimum wage. “What I support is making sure that we have an economy that is robust with low taxes and less regulation.”



She's damn proud to by a Republican, so lets help her out and be sure everyone knows this is what being a conservative means.

3. Not to fear! Repubs who think Livable Wage is an "other people" issue...

... will still vote for her!

Because they never think... "Gee, depressing wages for some depresses wages and raises for all - including ME!"

Or... "Gee, not providing health care to some leads to more people going the ER without insurance, which drives up costs for everyone -- including ME!"

Or... "Gee, when rich people get tax breaks, that means all the rest of us are going to have make up the difference to support that yuge military, including ME!"

and that moment was heard loud and clear. It seemed all Karen Handel could say was "Nancy Pelosi". Bleh, she came across as a nasty person.

The segments I saw made ossoff appear to be in control and knowledgeable...Unlike Handel that came across mean spirited and nowhere as prepared

She doesn't support a livable wage? What the hell are people supposed to do? What is the point of working at all if people can't live on what they make? I am so tired of these sick, evil motherfu**ers! Their cruelty is just beyond belief! Arghhhhhhhhhh!
