Isakson retiring before the 2020 race is a LOT better than him retiring ahead of the 2018 race. In 2020 Trump will be able to carry the two open Georgia seats with straight ticket votes. This is, I believe, why Isakson chose not to retire until now, and why Abrams isn't running.
Call her a sore loser all you like; her refusal to back down has gotten her plenty of national attention from politically-minded folks and even scored her delivering a SOTU rebuttal even though she's in neither House or Senate. She's getting lots of attention for being unemployed
I say, her not immediately jumping into either Senate race is the best indicator we have of how things are going down in Georgia, which is to say, in 2020 Trump has both of those locked down for the GOP. A rally or two in Atlanta and twitter endorsements will seal the deal.
Abrams is an opportunist and a self-aggrandizer. If she sees no opportunity in either Senate race, then she sees no opportunity there. A VP ticket slot, though, boosts her nationally without having to actually WIN anything, which is her main hurdle she has to waddle over.
So... hey, look at that. More reason to not give a fuck.
Also, watch how quickly the 'russian cosigners' bullshit gets memory holed now that its blown out of the water 🤣 By the weekend no one will even remember Mattis' op-ed.
NBC and the Mooch both took their shots.
