(CNN) Now that Herschel Walker is officially the Republican Senate nominee in Georgia, Democratic Sen. Raphael Warnock has started to mine the treasure trove of opposition research out there on the former NFL star. Near the end of the commercial, this text appears onscreen: "Is Herschel Walker really ready to represent Georgia?" Over the years, two other women -- Walker's ex-wife and an ex-girlfriend -- have also accused him of making threats, telling authorities Walker claimed he would shoot them in the head. You know, you talked about doing a disinformation -- what about getting a department that can look at young men that's looking at women, that's looking at their social media. But as Warnock's latest ad makes clear, nominating Walker was a major risk for Republicans in a critical state to their majority math.
