Recently fellow Kossack Orange Dog reported on his/her visit with Democratic U.S. Senate Candidate in Georgia, Branko Radulovacki (referred to as Dr. Rad), and raised the question of whether or not he is the better U.S. Senate candidate than the DSCC-funded Michelle Nunn?
The funny thing is: Radulovacki is more liberal than Michelle Nunn (against the war in Syria when Nunn was for intervention), a doctor not afraid to show his support for the Affordable Healthcare Act and manages to be a consensus builder, at least that's what Orange Dog's diary and the comments observe:

This evening, Branko Radulovacki is participating in a Candelight Vigil for Medicaid Expansion tonight at the Georgia State Capital. This is in response to Gov. Nathan Deal's apparent unwillingness to expand Medicaid in the state.

Join Dr. Rad in Atlanta on Saturday, Nov. 16th at 7pm at the State Capitol for a candlelight vigil in support of Medicaid expansion.
Governor Deal’s decision to reject federal funding to cover 650,000 low-income Georgians who currently lack health coverage was unwise. This event, sponsored by HealthStat, will demonstrate the widespread and rapidly-growing support for Medicaid expansion in Georgia. The federal funds are still available, and the need is great. Both common sense economics and compassion lead to the same conclusion: it’s time for the Governor to reverse his decision and expand Medicaid in GA.
If you can’t attend the vigil but still want your voice to be heard, go to HeretoHelpGA.com and sign the petition.
It appears that Radulovacki has been working to fight Gov. Deal and friends from blocking Medicaid expansion in Georgia for some time:
Now the biggest question is: Will Michelle Nunn show up at the Candlelight Vigil tonight? If not, then it appears Branko Radulovacki may be the more credible candidate we may be able to depend on with regards to healthcare and defending the Affordable Healthcare Act.
Should also point out: Radulovacki is very communicative on Twitter.
