Tuesday, August 5, 2025 - Dooley's in the game and Duncan's in the party
from The Ron Show · host Ron Roberts
Former college football coach and son of Georgia coaching legend Vince Dooley, Derek Dooley has put himself in "the game," so to speak. He's among the three prominent names seeking the GOP nomination to try and unseat Senator Jon Ossoff in 2026. The delicate balance he's trying to seek - being Kemp-anointed but kowtowing to Trump fanatics simultaneously will be an interesting tightrope walk for him, and already his two combatants are taking aim at his being largely absent, politically until now. ------ Meanwhile, former GOP Lieutenant Governor Geoff Duncan has gone from leaving the GOP to now fully embracing his entry into the Democratic Party. I'd been inhospitable to him doing this, instead imploring he and those like him to go wrest the GOP from MAGA and save this country in the process, but I've softened my tone and thrown out the welcoome mat - with caveats.
