Analysis: GOP undersold its accomplishments ahead of 2026 election

State Republicans will have a narrow majority in the Senate when the General Assembly reconvenes in January, but they'll be in the minority in the House. And for the first time in decades, a Democrat will occupy the governor's office. For a look at how the GOP got to this point and how it could recover, let's turn to Loretta Lepore. She's a GOP communication strategist, Emmy award-winning journalist, and former press secretary to Gov. Sonny Perdue. She spoke with GPB's Peter Biello.

And of all the things I could have possibly become known for in this wonderful city, I never imagined it would involve a hot dog, a jar of peanut butter and the Mayor of Macon! But here we are, and apparently my taste in hot dog toppings has become a matter of public discussion. Who knew that something so delicious could cause so much commotion? It all started during a recent episode of my Let’s Eat podcast about Macon Burger Week. One of my fellow Burger Squad members mentioned that cream cheese was an incredibly underrated topping for hamburgers. As we talked about unusual toppings, he suggested cream cheese might even be delicious on a hot dog. That’s when I casually mentioned that my absolute favorite hot dog topping is peanut butter.
