Not a fan of Dr. Oz? Vote for him anyway: Voting isn’t a marriage so don’t treat it that way.

“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”

Yeah, we don’t want another Biden in US government.

[Reily]

Yet Pennsylvania made him lieutenant governor.
Doesn’t take much to impress a Pennsylvania voter.

[BobL]

Well stated!

It’s almost a fetish for some people that they need to like the candidates. I vote for whoever I think will do the least damage and occasionally might even produce a benefit.

“This is sure to attract all the “I’m too pure to vote Oz” retards.”
—
They are just looking for an excuse not to actually go out on a nippy November day. In most cases, if they ever have voted it was so long ago they would have to re-register and they are much to slothful for something like that.

[Carriage Hill]

Yeas, I’m votying for him, but the Fetterman Filth is going to hand his ass to him, no matter what we spend.

Another Trump mistake.

[Srednik]

HOLD YOUR SCHNOZ AND VOTE FOR OZ.

[lightman]

Pennsylvania Ping!

Please ping me with articles of interest.

FReepmail me to be added to the list.

I voted for Barnett in the primary.

Now I will vote for the nominee.

Any other action is being a sore-Gore loser.

[HamiltonJay]

Bull what’s a lousy argument.

Should OZ win (which ain’t gonna happen) will be looking at being stuck with the turd you can’t even make an argument for other than, at least he’s not the other guy for a minimum of 12-18 years.

No sale.

[HamiltonJay]

Hahaha you don’t understand PA politics at all...

You put this turd in office you are stuck with him for a minimum of 12-18 years.

Just go look at what the establishment did to Barnett if you think someone is going to primary out an incumbent Senator in PA.

This is the dumbest argument put forth yet for this turd....

Yeah, he sucks, but at least he’s not the other guy...

Great campaign strategy... really going to rally the troops to your cause.

[HamiltonJay]

I will not be part of knowingly putting another RINO into office, PERIOD.

That’s not Sore Loserman, that’s understanding replacing one Rino with Another, just keeps rewarding the Uniparty Globalists... won’t be part of it anymore.

No Sale.

[HamiltonJay]

Oz is not MAGA... Not in any way shape or form... if he was I’d be his biggest advocate, he’s not in any way MAGA... NO Sale.

[thouworm]

Well...hope you are wrong, but you rarely are.

Same article below, posted twice today-— suggesting race is tightening.

Otherwise, not on my priority list-—except to vote.

Trump’s race to lose. He knows the stakes!

The great William F. Buckley said, "...[B]e for the most right, viable candidate who could win.”

For those of you who are victims of a public education, that means you should vote for the most conservative candidate who can get elected.

[TigersEye]

He’s Trump’s pick and the only choice. It’s him or the Deep State candidate.

You go ahead and vote for Deep State.

OK, what are we stuck with should Fetterman ( The Commie sympathizer) win?

[momincombatboots]

Snow, graham andmurkowski agree. Who needs a senate full of rinos? A senate that will do the dems bidding.
This’ll me of them king gives the gop perpetual power to run a bunch of dem candidates under an R.
This is how Obama wins.

[Theophilus]

I wish I could vote against OZ. Instead I’ll have to console myself by voting againt Britt and Poison Ivey the school marm from Rio Linda!
