[cnn-photo-caption image= http://i2.cdn.turner.com/cnn/2008/images/09/25/art.billmac.cnn.jpg caption="Clinton will hit the trail in Georgia Wednesday."](CNN) - Three weeks before Georgia’s December 2 Senate runoff vote, former President Bill Clinton – the last Democratic presidential candidate to carry the state – will stump for his party’s candidate Jim Martin, locked in a tight race with incumbent Republican Saxby Chambliss.
Clinton, who first visited the state for Martin last fall, will become the first high-profile Democrat to visit the state to campaign for the Senate challenger since Election Day.
The former president’s campaign event in Atlanta Wednesday will have an economic focus, according to Martin’s campaign.
Former Republican presidential nominee John McCain visited Georgia last week to campaign for Chambliss.

THANK YOU PRESIDENT CLINTON !!!!
WHAT EVER DOUBTS I DEVELOPED
DURING THE NOMINATION CAMPAIGN ABOUT
BILL & HILLARY, HAVE MORE THAN PROVEN ME
WRONG. WE ARE GRATEFUL. MUCH LOVE TO YOU BOTH.
Thank you President Clinton. Anything you can do to help will be greatly appreciated.
Clinton still has a lot of clout and people love him. I'm sure
it will help Martin win.
One of the Best Presidents ever I doubt there will be another like him.
C'mon political leaders. Go down to Georgia and campaign for Jim Martin. Martin deserves to win over the likes of Chambliss, who has perpetually played dirty political pool against his opponents.
Democrat is going to carry Geogia senatorial seat come December 2, Mr President- elect will also campaign for Martin. Republican should expect another defeat, America should rise up and punish the Republican party for their fell policy.
P.S.
Republicans: Don't put your hopes in Bobby Jindal (LA)!
He's the Antecedent to the Anti-Christ! He's wearing a mask!
He tries to act like he's laid back, and he is; he's waiting for his time!
We Democrats will be waiting for him!!!!
good
Boy, Obama is playing the Clintons along just like did the American people.
Bill may be in GA, but we all know he's really campaigning for Hillary, Sec of State '08.
Americans and Georgians in particular knew Bill's economic records when he was The President of US, l wish Georgians will see the light now and remember, they will have to contribute their quota to see that the damage done to US economy by Republicans is repaired. To do this, they will be better off by supporting the candidate Bill supports; Bill Clinton will not support a candidate he is not sure of. Jim is the right candidate.
vote jim martin georgia.
For the sake of the country I sure hope Chambliss WINS,we can ill afford another Liberal in the Senate–There NEEDS to be some CHECKS and BALANCES,Georgia voters can really make a difference about what happens the next four years.
Excellent!! Georgia needs an overhaul big time.
WJC is a good man. We all have skeletons in our closet and yes, he did do something that should have stayed between him and Hilary in the days of his White House endeavors, but, he NEVER sent us into a war that was not warrented and he did not get anyone killed. THAT is the difference between him and Bush and in MY book, that makes him the better leader of the two...
Maybe it is not a good idea for President Obama to have 60 seats in the senate! His biggest thorn will be the Democrats.
Excellent idea!
Good for democrats
Go Hilly-Billy!
If Bill Clinton can turn this state Blue again in this election I wish him God Speed. Do your thing Bill and let's get another Democrat in the Senate. We'er going to need him there to get this nation moving along the correct path once again. THANKS Bill !
Oh how I wish your VP Al Gore had been president over the last eight years as oppsed to that numbskull G W Bush. but at least we're on the correct path now.
Clinton is the last President to have a balanced budget and a surplus...if he's talking economy, people will listen.
I hope President Clinton helps Martin win Georgia. We have sent the Democratic party the message...we need change
We are sick of the lies, the self centered ideals the Republican have ruled on. They are self serving, only thinking of themselves and their cronies while the country withers away.
I am sick of the hate media that Hannity and Rush spew, they are negative and lie. I can't take more than ten seconds of their bull, they are bought and paid for by the right.
They talk about going back to their roots? What a joke. Their roots are as corrupt as they are now. Big government..they wrote the book. Special interests groups–they are full of them on the right.
It is time to concentrate on the US, our people and the Republican party will NEVER give us that.
While I fully expect the Republicans to win in Georgia; wouldn`t it be shocking if the Democrats could pull off an upset even in the heart of Dixie. The G.O. P. are desperate to hold on to the Deep South. If they can`t win there; they are really up the proverbial creek without a paddle. By the way; what happens when the police haul Ted Stevens out of Congress in handcuffs. Even people in Alaska must realize how foolish they look voting for a convicted felon!
I have the greatest respect for Bill Clinton,and believe wholeheartedly he can help Dem. candidate Jim Martin defeat senate republican incumbent Chambliss. Georgia has some serious illegal-emigration problems, more so than their neighboring states, this will figure greatly into the local economic focus concerns. Why, this will help, is that the Clinton's (Hillary/Bill) have shown great empathy for this group of unfortunates, initiating ways to integrate their resources/culture into a vibrant society, enhancing the diversity that has made america the greatest country in the world. Remember this one thought,we are a country of emigrants, and the Republican Party seems to have lost that message!
'Ole' Bill just can't stay out of the limelight, can he???
GOP is the MASTER of 2% SOCIALISM.
GOP stand for:
Greedy Oil-based Party
Gangbang Our Pocket
