Today on Political Rewind, Georgia Democrats rally around their chances to win key races in 2020 at their annual dinner. In attendance: both declared and potential candidates for the two U.S. Senate seats on the ballot in Georgia.

Meanwhile, as Gov. Brian Kemp weighs candidates for Sen. Johnny Isakson’s seat, he meets with a possible candidate who could bring minority voters to the party.

Also, Rep. John Lewis joins a chorus of bipartisan voices condemning President Trump’s characterization of the impeachment inquiry as a "lynching." We discuss yet another incident involving the president’s racially-charged language.
