Another day, another inane thing to come out of Herschel Walkerโs mouth. While giving a campaign speech on Wednesday, the Republican candidate for US Senate commented: โI donโt want to be a vampire any more. I want to be a werewolf.โ

Like several other of his speeches, no one could decipher the tangent he went off on. Walkerโs speech took place in McDonough as he recalled a film he recently saw that struck a nerve with himโbut no one actually knows why. โFright Night, Freak Night, or some type of night,โ, he said trying to recall the title. Of course, he didnโt stop there.
โI donโt know if you know, but vampires are some cool people, are they not? But let me tell you something that I found out: a werewolf can kill a vampire. Did you know that? I never knew that. So, I donโt want to be a vampire any more. I want to be a werewolf.โ
The video of his remarks quickly went viral because of how incoherent he was. Walker is also still throwing jabs at his opponent, Raphael Warnock. He commented that the vampire in the movie he saw was โlooking real good in his black suit.โ
โWhoa, that sounds like Senator Warnock, doesnโt it?โ Walker quipped. He then told the audience to โhave faith,โ even though it was used as a broad term. โIt is time for us to have faith,โ he explained. โWe gotta have faith in our fellow brothers. Gotta have faith in this country. We gotta have faith in elected officials. And right now thatโs the reason Iโm here.โ
Raphael Warnock, who currently holds the position as Georgia senator, outpolled Walker last week. However, he did not pass 50% of the vote. According to state law, a runoff will be held on December 6. This means that Walker will have plenty of time to babble on about more things that make sense only to him.
