0:00.0	The scary part is that Herschel Walker had a chance and he almost won.
0:20.5	I've been saying now for months that Herschel Walker never should have even had a shot
0:25.4	in a country that made sense with voters with some connection to reality.
0:31.0	Someone like Herschel Walker never should have even won the Republican nomination in
0:35.0	Georgia to be Senator.
0:36.8	Never mind getting 49% of the vote roughly in the general election in Georgia, which

1:35.4	through Herschel Walker's record as a national political candidate.
1:40.1	He's running in Georgia, but set in a campaign speech, he lives in Texas, et cetera, et cetera.
