Good call, but I don't think 1980 is recent enough (though, being more recent than Chappaquiddick, it probably counts for some of these cartoonists).

Heh, look at this guy, who got more than twice as many votes as the Republican candidate in a deep red county of a deep red state. What a loser!
Yeah, but that's because he was the only democrat running against a field of varying conservatives who wanted their shot at the big-time. Most of what I've read suggests that a runoff is a bad situation since it's a red district.

Granted the whole "He doesn't even LIVE here!" is rich from the people who constantly try to pass off affluent white dudes a folksy, salt-of-earth cowboy types.

He wasn't the only Democrat, he was just by far the one with the most support and voters. If everybody shows up again to the runoff election and votes for the same party candidate, he will probably lose but it will be incredibly close (he got 48% of the vote in the first round). If even a small portion of the Republicans don't show up for the runoff because their favorite guy lost, then Ossoff's got a pretty good shot at it.

Fivethirtyeight had a thing where they said that in runoff elections like that, both the person who won the first round and the party that in aggregate won the first round have some amount of predictive power, and it's mostly a tossup when they disagree like this.

WE ARE SMART
And it should be noted that Handel, the Republican that won, is probably the best case runoff candidate for Ossoff. The 6th District is made up of affluent white suburbs of Atlanta whose main political concern is "I want low taxes." They're more cosmopolitan than the average GOP voter and moderate on issues like abortion and gay marriage. Handel, on the other hand, is a Bible thumper whose central issue is being pro-life. Out of all the Republican candidates in the running, she's probably the most at odds with the local Republican zeitgeist.

The aggregate only had Republicans up two points, and they had a asston of candidates. Ossoff has a reasonable shot.

To be fair, there is Juanita Broaddrick, who still maintains that she was raped by Bill Clinton, and I don't see how you can dismiss her claims without going into "Well women make up false allegations sometimes" like people like Glenn Beck are doing with O'Reilly.

One can say that Juanita Broaddrick's accusation probably isn't true without going into full "women are lying whores who accuse successful men of rape for profit" mode. Despite testifying under oath that he raped her, she also said in a sworn affidavit that Clinton never made any unwelcome sexual advances towards her. Her case was so dubious even Kenneth Starr ultimately didn't try to press her claims.
