Rumor is Malania liked OZ, so that’s why he got the nomination...

Oz is terrible... I am hopeful Kathy pulls off the upset, I will not support OZ in the fall if he is the nominee... Let the D’s have it, and then fight for a decent candidate rather than put another RINO hack in there just to betray us when it matters again.

Held my nose enough, Specter, Santorum, Toomey, won’t do it any longer, and I know I’m not the only one.

Romney and Cox betrayed their constituents and will not likely run for re-election. One of my distant cousins is on the state GOP committee and despises both with a purple passion.

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Melania was also the one who proudly announced that Trump was the first president to enter office supporting homosexual marriage. Now she’s pushing the twisted Oz over an extraordinary black female conservative. But Melania looks good so don’t dare say that she’s anything less than the greatest flotus ever.

I have no idea if the rumor is true, but it is the rumor…

One bad endorsement to keep in Melania’s good graces may have been thr calculus.

I tend to think Oz’s name recognition will far outpace Fetterman’s appeal. We’ll see.

Could be. Certainly McCormick will keep the George Lincoln Rockwell Project types on board.

I’m not claiming to know anything - just wondering why you thought it would be his votes that would get carved up.

I would never call you names.

I have never met Dr. Oz, so I can't speak personally, but I think he's a very poor candidate for a Republican.

I am pretty tired from work, so I don't feel up to posting links now, but for a quick recap:

He has been very pro-abortion, pro-transgender (especially kids), pro-LGBT, and most other Hollywood positions, including recnetly.

He's a citizen of Turkey and he still votes in their elections.

But most importantly, I have a hard time believing in his sincerity about politics. Has he ever expressed that he was conservative or Republican before he decided to run for this race? As far as I can tell, he never expressed any such opinion, or said he was a Republican before he woke up and wanted to run for Senator. Quite the opposite. So, why should I all of the sudden believe he is sincere about this?

If someone loves Oprah, I guess they want to vote for him, but Oprah isn't in charge of the GOP yet.

I've never heard if his daughter until today. What does she do?

Oh, I forgot one thing: I always thought Dr. Oz is a terrible doctor. I can elaborate later.

Your comments about Fetterman are true. He’s seen as the champion of the blue-collar worker. He’s a Harvard grad. He would have the support of Pittsburghers. I’m afraid the seat is going to the Democrats.

Excellent summary. Pennsylvanians in the “T”, and I’m one of them, who would never vote for carpetbagger Oz. Trump has lost his mind. And guess what he said about Oz when he was at his Greensburg, Pa. rally? “Oz’s wife will make a great first lady for Pennsylvania.” Oz is running for the Senate, not the governorship of Pennsylvania. Trump doesn’t know that?? Shows how much homework he’s done for this endorsement. Butt out of Pa. politics, Trump. You know nothing about them.

I think Fetterman is running for the wrong office. As a former mayor and sitting lieutenant governor, the guy should have been a no-brainer to run as Wolf's successor in the governor's office instead of wasting his personality and presence as a useless legislator.

Since he's beholden to the party leadership, he probably had to accept the Senate run as the crumbs from the table after Shapiro decided to run for governor.

She'll have my vote if she wins the GOP primary, but Kathy Barnette has the thinnest resume of anyone I've seen running for a seat in the U.S. Senate. "Fox News Political Commentator" isn't even a real job.

If this is the best the Pennsylvania GOP has to offer in defending a Republican seat in the U.S. Senate, then we are doomed.

The “best” the GOP of PA has to offer is a slimeball carpet bagging tv personality and a trust fund manager… and because they are so bad, Kathy actually may pull off the upset.

Don’t kid yourself the GOP of PA (official party structure) want nothing to do with her, if she wins the nomination the party will only offer token support to her, she’s going to have to win by a literal grassroots campaign.

My guess was that if he was in third place, some (many?) wouldn’t want to waste their vote & would choose between Barnette and Oz.
