Would she have been able to appeal to center right Alabamians though? BTW considering Sonny Perdue cruised to reelection as Governor of Georgia in 2006, there were just some parts of the USA that the blue wave simply didn't hit.
Speaking of running statewide in Alabama, Democrats in Alabama need to run judge Sue Bell Cobb for Governor in 2026 against Tommy Tuberville, she's superb. Ran in 2018, unfortunately lost primary to Walt Maddox!! 😢🇺🇲

Former Secretary of Labor Alexis Herman dead at 77.
I feel like her not running statewide in Alabama was a missed opportunity (say 2006-I think she would have beaten Bob Riley in the Governor's race).

I thought Maddox was a decent candidate too. It's just that Alabama is too damn red.
