“Time to remember the best voting advice I’ve heard: Voting isn’t marriage; it’s public transport. You are not voting for “the one” who is absolutely perfect. You are getting on the bus. And if there isn’t one going exactly to your destination, you don’t stay home and sulk; instead, you take the one going closest to where you want to be.” I read this yesterday over on Bookworm’s blog. She does a weekly compilation of memes, cartoons, old photos, and things to think about. This is from her latest.
Two American Thinker articles about Dr. Oz, one by Rajan Laad and the other by Lynne Lechter, appearing yesterday as well, made me think.
I am not a Pennsylvanian, so I have no vote in the matter. As an American, though, I care very much about who my fellow countrymen over in the Keystone State send to the Senate. Dr. Mehmet Cengiz Oz is not my political cup of tea, for all sorts of reasons. Mostly, in the past, he hasn’t expressed views that are as conservative as I prefer.

If I could, though, I would vote for Dr. Oz. He is continuing the refreshing change of Republicans who are not career or dynastic politicians running for office. He’s a first-generation immigrant and a Muslim, proving again that it is the conservatives who have the biggest tent. And he’s not a lawyer. I understand the utility of having people who can read and understand laws participating in the creation of legislation, but 33% of the House and 50% of the Senate—really!
As a cardiothoracic surgeon and professor emeritus of surgery, Dr. Oz is a scientist, and we need more of those who can “follow the science”

Clearly you know nothing about PA politics.
Wolfe will not be governor when the next Senator is seated.
Dr Azz will vote with Murkowski, Romney and Graham, not with Trump or conservatism.
Dr Azz is anti-gun, pro-China, pro-WEF, pro-abortion, pro-grooming.
He only “converted” when he announced he was running for Senate.
There is ZERO trust in Dr Azz
“We will be voting whomever is running on the Libertarian ticket (or write-in Kathy Barnette).”

Everyone has heard all your boring & repetitive anti-Oz talking points for months. Take a break & try to cope.
Oh, yes.
He infuriated myself ,any times!
And, by the end, he really suffered from some kind of dementia/Acute Trump syndrome.
His NO vote on Obamacare reform was inexcusable.
But, now, we have replaced him with Sen Kelly, reliably, 100% voting with Biden!
I summon, that McCain was a lot better!
He is a show man.
So he’s got Michelle on his show! So what?
As Trump, why he endorsed him?
There were primaries, you could vote then for your favorite. Now, it is kind of late to have second thoughts.
I voted for Kathy Barnette. I have no second thoughts. People who listened to Trump in Pennsylvania on Oz now have buyer's remorse.
It is kind and winsome posts like yours that
make FR the kind of place we love to come
back to again and again! 🤗
All we can do is vote for Oz. I can’t understand the attraction of the Fetterman lowlife to anyone. Now that he’s ‘operating’ at 50% of normal (hard to apply that term to him), it’s puzzling why the PA demonKKKrats haven’t found a substitute. Fetterman’s days are numbered.
Yes I will....
Sorry to be so slow in replying. The time to do the knighting is during the primaries. I then vote for whoever the R is.
If you don’t have the numbers, even your best ones have no input. Once upon a time Dems had a variety of opinions, depending on the issues (always leftish, of course) but now they are completely under the thumb of Nancy and the money harvesting machine that is the DNC and they all vote identically.
So as long as they outnumber us, they’ll always win.
Our biggest problem when we had a majority was poor leaders, and even now it’s a problem. McCarthy is weak and McConnell really hates Trump (and always did).
I don’t like Oz either (I don’t live there, so it doesn’t matter) but he was endorsed by Trump.
