“They’re are 6 candidates running… you seem to think because I won’t vote for OZ that I am supporting McCormick.”

Then you will be picking out one of the 4 left that will all be losers. That’s so smart of you. Your vote is thus wasted. But I’m sure you’ll get off on that.

So by your logic I have to vote for another Uniparty RINO hack who will claim one thing to get elected the. Do another thing once elected or my vote is wasted? So supporting someone I know damn well will betray me is not wasting my vote, but refusing to is..

Wow that is some great logic you got there…

Use my vote to put a wolf and traitor in office, or my vote is wasted…

Already flat out stated here many times, I’ve held my nose enough times to do that, Specter, Santorum, Toomey… I won’t be part of doing it again. Let the democrat win, at least they are up front they intent to screw you over…

You can continue to engage in battered woman syndrome with the GOPe if you like, I’m done.

An important question for all FReepers to answer is how to deal with the less of two evils. We seem to be divided between those who stay home because they don't like the GOP candidate and those who "hold their nose" and vote for a GOP candidate they don't like. You mentioned disappointment in some past PA U.S. Senators (Specter, Santorum, Toomey). American Conservative Union Lifetime conservative ratings follow:

Specter - 42%
Santorum - 88.5%
Toomey - 92.6%

Specter was a true RINO, a dem in RINO clothing. However, I would not hesitate voting for Santorum and Toomey again over any dem candidate.

Good for you… I on the other hand am done.

Toomey votes to impeach. But hey he threw bones the rest of the time, and don’t even get me started on Santorum.

I’m done…

PA GOP establishment are Uniparty hacks.. I’m done supporting them because they aren’t the other guy…

You are welcome to vote for the lesser demon vs Satan himself… I will no longer settle for the abuse.

Enjoy your continued battered woman syndrome life, me I’m out.

Give me a candidate that deserves my vote, you’ll get it… throw me one who isn’t but try to sell it as at least he’s not the other guy… nope.

Hey our guy only pass his pockets selling out you 60% of the time, the other guy does it 90% of the time, so for our guy…. Nope

You’re on the wrong track buddy. I’ve seen and read your posts of late and so very often other Freepers disagree with you over and over again. I suggest this means you should look in a mirror to see what might be wrong with your political approach that is invariably antagonistic and chock full of your ultimatums about what you will or won’t do.

Who needs you as a conservative, because you really aren’t one. Not sure what you are, but your political instincts are lousy. If you prefer ANY democrat over a republican you are screwed up.

You have no idea whether Doctor Oz is a wolf or traitor except that you have deemed him so. He has done more good in his lifetime than most. He saves lives; what do you do other than to complain all the time on FR about how no one lives up to your impossibly high standards for most mortal men.

But you just keep up with your ultimatums to those republicans who at least take the risk of entering into the political elections arena but just aren’t perfect enough for you, and the rest of us will ignore you and your false expectations.

I predict now that were Oz to win, he will be a great ally to Prez Trump who will win in 2024, barring not having another corrupt and stolen election. I prefer a glass half full approach rather than your glass half empty whining. It’s unbecoming. By the way, McCormick is the deep state GOPe candidate, not Oz who has not held office and thus has had no part in the corrupt politics of today.

Trump was once a democrat in name only who had never held office, but always was a pragmatic and patriotic soul, and now I maintain policy-wise one of the best conservative Presidents this country has ever had. Oz is the same. He is now free from Hollywood obligations to pretend to be liberal on some issues, and can do as he wishes politically. And he is going to be a true conservative. He and Trump have known each other for a long time.

We’ll see who proves right here, and I maintain it will be me. If Oz wins and behaves otherwise, you will have my mea culpa, but my “woman’s instinct” says you will be proven wrong. Time will tell.

OZ is just another RINO, playing the part to get the vote.. unless, of course you agree in the transgender agenda and/or gun control, in which case, go right ahead and vote for him, oh, wait, that’s right, you can’t, you don’t live in PA, but you know what PA should and will do.

OZ is a carpet bagging hack, who has made it clear where he stands on things like transgender stuff and kids and gun control.. but of course, that doesn’t matter, he’s on TV, he’s got a following, so let’s push him for the seat.

If you think boys can be girls and vice versa, and that’s “conservative”?

You believe guns are a “health care issue”, and that’s conservative...

Then you are right, your and my definition of conservatism are vastly different.

I know EXACTLY what sort of traitor OZ is... unlike you I ACTUALLY Live in PA, and have for over 30 years.. I know exactly what he is because I’ve been had to deal with these fools like Specter, and Santorum and Toomey claims and public personas as republicans, while actually seeing how they behaved and what they did once elected.

All you need to know about PA politics and the GOP party of PA, is that the 3 leading candidates in the current polling are carpet baggers... That’s how out of touch the GOP of PA is... They can’t (or more appropriately WON’T) actually find a cadidate that CAN win in PA, because those that CAN win don’t agree with their uniparty/RINO world views... so we get jokes to vote for again and again and again.

OZ, unlike most of the previous ones has a nice long public record of tv shows and statements, and if you actually research what this guy is and has done over the years and think he’s a conservative, then you are absolutely right your definition of conservative and mine are vastly different.

You predict away, I will predict the following, if the slimeball wins, he’ll be just as big a waste of carbon as Toomey, and probably more so. When push comes to shove, he’ll cast the uniparty hack vote like a good little toadie. I’ll also go one bigger.. Unlike you I actually know the names of who the Democrat Front Runners in PA Senate race are without googling them..

OZ has fame on his side, so there is no doubt a lot of ill and uniformed women who watch his show will vote for him, because well they watch his show, but have not a clue where he stands.

I’ll also say this, Fetterman will eat OZ for lunch in a general election, OZ has basically name recongition and low info women voters who watched his show. Trump won’t be able to pull him over the finish line in a general election here.. not a chance in hell against Fetterman. Hell OZ isn’t even winning the primary.. Trump endorsement might be enough to get him through the primary... MIGHT... we will see, but Fetterman will eat him for lunch. Fetterman will most likely eat any GOP candidate for lunch in the General.

The sheer foolishness of some here that Trump’s base are just robots who do as they are told, is silly. If you think the disenfranchised voters Trump brought to the table in 16 and 20 are going to show up in large numbers to pull the lever for OZ, you are living in a dream world. I am sure some will, I would expect OZ to enjoy a little bump from this endorsement, but don’t think for one minute that it’s the golden ticket of ensured victory.

Oh, I’ll add one more PREDICTION for you, if Trump does a rally in PA and puts OZ up during it, Oz will get booed rather soundly.

Well we will know the answer to the above in reasonably short order and it will be interesting to see if your prediction here holds. Time will tell. I have to say though that you are such a downer. If you’re married, I feel sorry for your wife.

Good points. But can’t imagine Fetterman a Democrat winning anything. He has done nothing. Democrats have only screwed us. Dem elites are conniving unethical trash that will try to win by deception or any way possible.

If Oz wins it won’t be through my vote. Trumps picks are not always my picks.

I’m no fan or Fetterman, but you put him up against a lightweight like OZ,and the contrast will be stark.

I know there is a huge red wave coming this fall, and it should be a slam dunk on paper for any R to win.. however the PA senate race is one where I would not be surprised bucks the trend.

OZ has name recognition and low information female fans. Fetterman is a beast, physically, And he’s made a solid name for himself in this state over the years doing a lot of hard work others would walk away from, coming from being the long time mayor of Braddock and not nearly as crazy as the far left of the party.

I am looking currently, at this race as a bellweather. If the GOP take this senate Seat this fall, then it means the democrats brand is absolutely worthless, and pretty much anyone with a D beside their name, regardless, will be in trouble.. because if any of the 3 leading senate race gop candidates were to go against Fetterman and win, it basically means a ham sandwich would have won as long as it had an R beside it this fall.

That may indeed be the case, there is no doubt a red wave is coming and the Democratic brand is crap right now… but for this case I suspect once the race is down to two players and the public sees the players, that Fetterman very well may buck the trend.

A carpet bagging empty suit who has advocated for gun control and transgender surgeries for kids going up against a man who has spent his adult life doing hard work in the political arena? Just don’t see OZ surviving a debate… tv smiles and platitudes will ring as hollow as they are I suspect once they would be face to face.

We will see.
