I reviewed a similar story today but couldn't stop laughing at one of the responses found on Twitter:

Herschel Walker Compares Resume To Barack Obama: 'I Think I've Done Well'Republican Senate candidate Herschel Walker said Wednesday that he would put his own resume up against Barack Obama's "any time of the day" after the former president questioned whether he was fit to serve in Congress.Obama has been conducting some late-hour campaigning for Democrats ahead of the fast-approaching midterm elections on November 8. During a Friday stop in Georgia, where Walker is running against incumbent Democratic Senator Raphael Warnock, Obama criticized the former NFL player as "a celebrity that wants to be a politician.""Some of you may not remember, but Herschel Walker was a heck of a football player. But here's the question. Does that make him the best person to represent you in the U.S. Senate?" Obama said, and was met with a resounding "no" from the crowd. "Does that make him equipped to weigh in on the critical decisions about our economy and our foreign policy and our future?"Fox News' Brian Kilmeade asked Walker about Obama's comments on Wednesday, and the Republican responded by listing what he said were his other ventures outside of football, including a food service business."My resume against [Obama's] resume, I'll put it up any time of the day, and I think I've done well," he said.Before Obama was first elected president in 2008, he served in the Illinois Senate and then the U.S. Senate. And before getting involved in politics, he worked as a community organizer in Chicago's South Side and in a small law firm in Chicago specializing in civil rights, according to his White House profile.Georgia Republican Senate nominee Herschel Walker addresses a crowd of supporters during a campaign stop on October 20 in Macon, Georgia. Walker said Wednesday that he would put his own resume up against Barack Obama's "any time of the day" after the former president questioned whether he was fit to serve in Congress.JESSICA MCGOWAN/GETTY IMAGESDemocrats and Republicans have been taking part in last-minute campaign pushes as the time ticks down before Election Day. The tight U.S. Senate race in Georgia is seen as one of a few that could potentially decide which party will hold control of the upper chamber of Congress after the midterms. FiveThirtyEight's Senate forecast currently shows that there is a "dead heat" between Democrats and Republicans for control of the Senate, with Republicans winning in 53 out of 100 election outcomes and Democrats winning in 47 out of 100 outcomes.Some recent polling casts doubt on whether Walker, who has been endorsed by former President Donald Trump, will be able to flip the U.S. Senate seat in Georgia. FiveThirtyEight's current polling average gives Warnock a 1.2-point lead, with 46.7 percent of support compared to Walker's 45.4 percent.
