080510 REP DEBATE 01web — His image reflected in a mirror, Carl Smith, background right, waits his turn as Ray McKinney answers an audience question during Thursday evening's debate between the remaining Republican candidates for the 12th U.S. Congressional District at R.J.'s Seafood & Stakes prior to Tuesday's runoff election. McKinney defeated Smith in Tuesday's runoff.

The day after he won a runoff to secure the Republican nomination for Georgia’s District 12 seat in Congress, Ray McKinney appeared on Wednesday's “Mornings unPHILtered” show. McKinney told host Phil Boyum he believed from the beginning that he was the best candidate to defeat incumbent Congressman John Barrow, and can't wait to get started. He said he respects the effort that runoff opponent Carl Smith made over the past 16 months as he ran his campaign.
