Debate invitations accepted by Ramaswamy, rebuffed by Acton

[DIRTYSECRET]

Ramaswamy announced Sept. 2 that he had accepted debate invitations from a local NBC affiliate in Cincinnati. Hours later, Acton's campaign issued a statement that boiled down to a hard no. Acton campaign manager Phil Stein said in a written statement that Ramaswamy is a "scam artist" who spreads lies about Acton and her family.

He'd eat her up with his gift of gab but it's got me thinking he's too much like Abdul El-Sayed who is a real bull$hit artist. Vivek has fewer contradictions of note. He's not the first one to do a POTUS run to introduce himself so he now 'lowers his sights' to the governors office-a major one. No elected experience. You tell me.

[for-q-clinton]

Well Trump had no elected experience. Maybe we need more outsiders not less.

[MinorityRepublican]

Amy Acton won’t be in charge. Her Soros “handlers” will run the show.

Ohio was on track to be solid red like Florida. The selection of JD Vance as VP and the subsequent appointment of Husted to take his place puts the senate seat in jeopardy. Having DeWine as governor gave him the chance to show that DeWine is not a team player. We may win both seats in November but would a governor Vivek grow the party like DeSantis did in Florida? He’s gotta win first.

[MinorityRepublican]

Ohio is fine. They have scrappy candidates. If you’re a politician, you’ll run as a RINO even though you’re a Democrat.

[wiseprince]

This is what Democrats do when they are going to cheat. They probably have Ohio in the bag

[Round Earther]

Not unlike Texas, where Talarico will not debate Ken Paxton.

Expect to see more of this in the future. Idiot Democrats will refuse to debate competent Republicans, perhaps even at the presidential level.

Liar, racist, hater… all will be used as excuses. And the mainstream media will clap like trained seals in approval.

[Red Badger]

Noticed that Dem candidates are not doing debates for fear of anothe Biden moment............

[DIRTYSECRET]

The good news is that should Vivek win he’ll have 6-8 years to prove he’s ready for prime time in the WH. Accomplishments at the state level will have to be well known outside the state. Florida’s been able to do it.

Ohio is fine. If you’re a politician, you’ll run as a RINO even though you’re a Democrat.**
With Portman, Voinovich, and DeWine we can agree. Lets hope it’s behind us.

[cableguymn]

Fine. Do the Clint Eastwood style debate

Put an empty chair on the stage and “debate” it.

Aside from their skin colors, Ramaswamy has zero in common with El Sayed.

[iontheball]

Lots of Freepers are nervous about Vivek. I’m not one of them. He is an extremely intelligent guy with mostly sound conservative positions. He presents a sticking difference from his cowardly Commie rival.

[econjack]

You’d think the Hide-in-the-Basement strategy used by Biden and Harris would convince Acton that’s not a viable plan. Ramaswamy should hit her hard for hiding from the people.

**Aside from their skin colors, Ramaswamy has zero in common with El Sayed.**

It’s the wordsmith stuff. Fence sitters could listen to them both debate and come away thinking they’re both the same.

Speaking of that it would be great to see the 2 of them debate after the elections, December perhaps. Different offices but both their orator skills would be a mind bender regarding the future of the country.

[ronniesgal]

I will vote for Vivek over Acton.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Acton sounds to me like she’s a shickchit.

“You tell me.”

“Phil Stein said in a written statement that Ramaswamy is a “scam artist” who spreads lies about Acton and her family.”

Then come out and face him calling him a liar. Cowards.A partiot steps forward, not back into obscurity.

VR is a political hack using both sides of the fence. Up until the 2020 election he was not voting republican (libraterian) but did for Trump. He has supported DEI and government inclusion while promoting many conservative ideals:

Tax cuts, manufacturing boom, expanding natural gas production, and school choice. He wants to downsize the federal civilian workforce and the Federal Reserve and promotes merit-based economics over social-justice corporate policies.

Kind of a loose cannon.

It’s too bad Republicans nominated Vivek but I guess they are stuck with him for now. Electing a Dem would be even worse than a scummy con man like Vivek

Reminds me of Trump in a good way. You may have something there.
