Midterm attacks: Herschel Walker hit on abortion payment report, Dr. Oz on alleged quackery
Fox News
The final weeks of a midterm race are when voters pay the most attention, making it the opportune time to release the worst of attacks.
The contest in Georgia just got rocked by a new round of accusations against Herschel Walker, which he denies. Howard Kurtz is the host of FOX News Channel's MediaBuzz (Sundays 11 a.m.-12 p.m. ET). Based in Washington, D.C., he joined the network in July 2013 and regularly appears on Special Report with Bret Baier and other programs.
The former football star, challenging Democratic Sen. Raphael Warnock, has already survived a negative onslaught that would sink almost any other candidate. These range from an ex-wife charging threats and abuse to the emergence of previously unannounced children by a man who’s crusaded for black fathers to do their duty. He’s tried to lighten this baggage by admitting to past mistakes and mental health problems, and at times has been in a statistical tie with Warnock.
Now comes an allegation that is very difficult to explain away.
