This is not a slight on Shapiro, but you’d be surprised how many times I hear this from normie Dems. It’s usually couched in a phrase like, “Shapiro looks like my accountant, Ossoff looks like a nice young handsome man.”
👀 CNN anchor Elex Michaelson at end of politics panel discussion re: Ossoff 2028:
“As a Jew, some people read a little more Jewish than other people. And Jon Ossoff may not read as Jewish as Josh Shapiro does, for whatever that’s worth.”
An early Fox News poll of the Georgia Senate race shows @ossoff with a huge lead over @MikeCollinsGA:
Ossoff- 56%
Collins: 43%
Most important, Ossoff at 68% among independents and 66% with moderates.

NOTUS: Chuck Schumer Hits His Limit
Everything was ready for Dan Kleban to launch his candidacy for Senate in Maine: He had informed top Democrats about his decision, hired staff to run his campaign and picked an early summer day in 2025 to make the public announcement.
And then a call came in from Washington. It was a warning from the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee.
“They were basically like, don’t launch,” said one person with direct knowledge of the situation. “We’re telling you: ‘Don’t launch.’”

@_alex_joshua I think it’s fine if you are a backbencher, but if people in your district don’t know you—that’s on you and don’t be surprised if you lose.
