After his attacks on Max Cleland, it was hard to have any positive things to say about Chambliss.

For that reason alone he should be removed. We don't need more sleaze. It's time to clean up congress. And yes right wingers, that DOES include William Jefferson.

Why on earth would Chambliss call on two losers, Sarah "no brain" Palin and Rudy "a noun, a verb, and 911" Guiliani to campaign for him? Sure Palin and Guiliani are high profile with name recgnition, but not for anything good. Could it be because they are both rabid, devisive, attack dogs? Ah! Undoubtedly, he is using them to remind the people of Georgia that racism is alive and well! That strategy didn't work for McCain; hopefully it won't work for Chambliss either.

To show you how much clout Chambliss has, ask him why DoD decided to close at least two military bases in the Atlanta area, Ft McPherson and Ft Gillem. Georgia military bases were off limits when Sen. Sam Nunn was there but oh how times have changed.

Saxby Chambliss is a lowlife, sleazy, lying bag of excrement. I hope
he goes to hell for his treatment of Max Cleland. While Cleland was in Vietnam, leaving three limbs there, Chambliss was sitting on his cowardly butt at home with a "bad" knee. It's time for the people of Georgia to correct what they screwed up so badly in 2002

They need to re-run the Saxby add where he tries to link Cleland to BinLaden. Enough people are now awake that they will see the scum-bag tactics for what it is and dump Saxby the chickenhawk.

Looks like the excessive spending is about equal on both sides. I agree Tim in Wa that the money would be far better spent feeding people and providing health care. Besides if Obama can't get anything done with 58 or 59 Dem Senators, he will have failed miserably on his biggest selling point – that he can work across the aisle.

Darren,

As a GA resident, I apologize now. Yes, Chambliss is probably going to win. I worked on the Obama campaign and I'm helping Martin now, but our numbers have dwindled considerably. But, please don't consider us an anchor, we are trying.

Give it time though. When President Obama turns out to be as good, if not better than we thought, GA will go blue for his second turn.

To Boise ID
Couldn't agree more. I swear that some of these idiots (Usually and sadly Republican) can't spell or even use spell check.
Perhaps they are so angry that they just type away without checking. It's sad when you consider the American Education System or lack thereof.
Hopefully Obama can change that also

BOISE ID- OK, so judging from you asinine comment you blame everything on republicans and do not hold any Democrats responsible. Yes, that sounds like such an intelligent argument. You say that no one has the right to hoist their morality on you yet you are "praying" for higher gas prices and the demise of anyone who does not agree with you. I cannot believe how twisted Liberals are.

The money from both parties would be better spent helping President Obama pay for the Inauguration. Rmemeber the 9.74 million tax dollars are not enough. Let Georgians make Georgia's decision in peace. They don't need all these vultures who did not get enough before November 4th.

I do hope that my fellow Georgians will not fall for the fear, smear and disgusting ads run by Saxby chambliss. A vote for Chambliss will mean that Georgia will continue to go down the drain based up Chambliss belief that the middle clas are just plain stupid.

Chambliss got 5 deferrments from going to Vietnam, yet linked Max Cleland to bin laden and Saddam Hussein.
Yes, the same Max Cleland who LEFT 3 limbs in Vietnam fighting for this country.

The fraud Chambliss perpetrated is shameful and I hope the people of Georgia realize that fact this time.

Lord, please bless the intellectually less fortunate souls that believe in trickle down economics. Grant them enough intelligence to see through the fear tactics of those that seek to use them for their own gain. Please allow them to see that you cannot blame Clinton for the eight years after his presidency (Future) while blaming the Democratic Congress for our current situation (Present) and Obama for the two months prior to his Presidency (Past). Please show them that people with different colors on their skin are every bit as good if not better than themselves. Grant them the humility to realize that they have no right to project their own flawed morals upon others that seek to share their lives together in peace and tolerance. Show them that you cannot drill for more oil and protect our planet at the same time. Lord, please raise the price of gas continuously until we finally find something else. Please teach them how to spell so they don't look so dumb when they try to respond to this.

Mr. 911 is coming to GA? How sad. The whole Republican team is coming to GA to encourage people to vote for Chambliss – a bigot, a racist who doesn't appear to have more than two braincells. Is this really the best the Republicans have to offer?

And how does Mr. 911 sleep at night knowing that Chambliss used 911 to slime his patriotic and US Vet opponent in the last election?

Next thing you know, they'll be sending the 2nd worst they have to offer – Palin!

The more things change–the more they stay the same. Everyone is desperately holding on to what they've got–in Washington.

Meanwhile–we the people–find ourselves with a new President–but the same old crap going on all around him. Is there really a place for the people to "hope" something will change .

Simply put, Saxby hasn't shown why he should keep the job. His best argument even now is that he at least keeps the Dems from being filibuster-proof, and man, that's pretty thin. Martin wants the job and is ready to work; Saxby has a boy bringing him mint juleps on the porch.

Chambliss will probably win, but again for all the wrong reasons. The war cry for the GOP is "don't let the DEMs have control", but no regard for the fact that Chambliss is just a rancid excuse of a human being. I offer my congratulations to the GOP in advance for electing this shining example of their party to the Senate yet again. Feh!

The last congress was a "do-nothing" congress because Republicans filibustered more legislation than any previous three congresses put together! If you want to undermine Obama's efforts to turn this nation around, then vote Republican and protect the Repub's ability to block meaningful legislation. Otherwise, let's get Dems the 60 senate seats needed to block filibusters and turn the next congress into a do-something congress!

As eveident in the commercial airing on TV, Saxby is clueless. While they both have issues with their candidacy, I would vote for someone that is not clueless.

How in the world could you say you don't know what a recession is? Look all around you! Lets give the Dems 60, so they can get something done.
