Mehmet Oz, the Republican nominee for U.S. Senate in Pennsylvania, is quietly shifting his campaign messaging away from former President Trump as he transitions into what's likely to be one of the most hotly contested Senate elections of the midterms.

A big nothingburger. Even more Dims are distancing themselves from Brandon.

Every Republican in PA that voted for Oz is an a******.
You cost us a Senator by being, supposedly, pragmatic.

Maybe Pennsylvania is not as red (or purple) as people thought? Most of the votes in the primary were split between the two RINOs, and the 'rat is supposedly unstoppable.

No, its not a nothingburger. Its indicative of a fair-weather mentality in the candidate. It indicates that he has no back bone and won’t stand up for what matters to you who vote for him.

Beware the camel in the tent...

The fable of the Arab and the Camel. According to this classic tale, one cold night, a camel asks his master if he can put his head in the tent for warmth. “By all means and welcome,” said the man; and the camel stretches his head into the tent. Soon after, the camel inquires if he may also bring his neck and front legs inside. Again, the master agrees.

Finally, the camel asks, “May I not stand wholly within?” With pity, the master beckons him into the warm tent. But when the camel comes forward it becomes clear that the tent is too small for them both. “I think,” the camel said, “that there is not room for both of us here. It will be best for you to stand outside, as you are the smaller; there will then be room enough for me.” And with that, the man is forced outside of his tent.

The fable is a warning that small, seemingly harmless acts—even made with good intentions—can sometimes have negative repercussions. It is a tale our team often associates with values, and considers actively at this time of the year. After all, the creeping camel appears in many aspects of our lives…but only in rare situations is the camel more detrimental than when he eats away at our principles. And what better time than the beginning of a new year to reflect on what we hold most dear?

Values shape the outcomes of our relationships, careers, investments and society, and therefore, are far too important to leave to chance or camels. It is worthwhile to reflect on them for they have a material impact on our decisions and will manifest in our lives whether or not we explicitly consider them. Better to be conscious of our values than to leave them to fate. Especially since we will all let the camel into the tent at some point—and when and how we do it should be a deliberate choice.

I can post the exact same thing you did.
Trump picking Oz was so stupid.
Pennsyltucky is not voting for a carpetbagging Turkish Muslim…

I’ve never been comfortable with a muslim in any government office at any level....can anyone show me even one example where that’s been a good idea?

And this just confirms my suspicions.

Normally Republican political hacks get elected before moderating.

Which is exactly what Youngkin did in Virginia. Youngkin made it about himself and the changes he would bring to Virginia. He did not need to drumbeat the Trump name for people to see what he was about.

LOL. This is permanent. You think Dr. Oz is going to care a flip about MAGA and Trump should he win a six year Senate seat? Not a chance. He’ll get even worse.
