PHILADELPHIA — Wearing a bright smile, Kathy Barnette shook hands and introduced herself around the patio of a Montgomery County country club: “I’m Kathy, and I’m running for United States Senate,” she said.
Few would disagree.
Running on a shoestring budget and with a personal story that begins on an Alabama pig farm, Barnette has rocketed to the forefront of Pennsylvania’s crucial Republican Senate primary, according to both public and private polling. She’s picked up late momentum as she challenges her big-spending rivals Mehmet Oz and David McCormick.

I'd say...if she wins, she will lose royally to any Dem.
Just look at a laundry list of the Republicans who have held statewide office in PA over the last 30-40 years. By national standards they are usually moderate Democrats at best.
Political transgender. Add to it the MSM ‘wishes’.
If anyone is one the fence on this race, consider how good it is for Republicans to have quality African-American candidates on the ticket. It causes problems for the Dems in their urban strong holds, because black folks like to vote for other black folks in what is called “ethnic pride”. The more AA voters vote Republican, the harder the Dem bosses need to cheat to have a chance to win.
Yea, She’s unknown but said the right things at the debate so everyone is willing to jump on board. That’s why the Mitchs and Lindsey’s of the world always get re-elected.
Scrutiny and “mud slinging” are not the same…
GOPe/Uniparty are desperate to keep her from winning…
CONSIDER THE SOURCE: Associated Press
In other words Democrat Propagandists.
If they are pushing her, it is to make the GOP fail in the real election.
She’s young and has a future, if she is the real deal... but for now: if the AP is pushing her, I am going for the guy Trump supports. (Oz)
““Everyone knows Oz is running for this race. Everyone knows McCormick is running in this race, and they’re holding their nose,” Barnette said in an interview Monday. “When they break, the undecideds, they’re gonna break in my direction. There’s nothing (Oz and McCormick) can possibly say to these people... that they haven’t already said, because they’ve spent such an insane amount of money.””
Don’t know much about her but I like what she said there. It doesn’t sound like a normal political candidate so that’s refreshing.
To win in the general election she will need name recognition and that requires money unless she gets the attention some other way. Trump was already a celebrity so can’t go by that model.
Let Ditch remain in the minority with no new minions added to has Augean Stable.

How do you know she is a ‘good’ candidate? She is an unknown.
If the AP is promoting her, that has me worried.
Their urban strongholds is the result of cheating. She wouldn’t win Philly or even really be competitive. The election was stolen and it’s obvious. The tactics are already in place. Oz probably has cross over appeal and will vote with Repukes more often than the Rats. You’re not going to get a hard right candidate elected here at this point and I don’t think one is even running.
This is not a normal year. It is not even a year where some ate angry. It is a year that a large block of voters have had it with unequally applied laws, pointless wars, and politicians that do not possess an understanding of the basis of civilized society. There is a deep swell of anger out there and a lot of candidates will not be trusted to do what they say. If she wins the primary she will have a solid shot at winning it all.
The quality of this one is questionable, is the problem. And I like Dr. Oz not one bit.
One has to ask why the AP is giving her a “nice” underdog story 5 days before the primary.
Trump won Pennsylvania.. he is not a moderate..
I just put up her campaign sign in my front yard, right next to Mastriano’s & Entin’s.
