I spent my entire life researching and voting for candidates who I felt were the best fit in that position, not voting strictly party line. That ended with Trump and his minions. I now vote straight D don't even look into a candidates schtick. This is where Republicans lose out. It's not that we find all of your candidates unacceptable, it's just what the party has become since Trump and his buddies reared their ugly combover heads...get rid of the riff raff and maybe things will change. Until then my vote goes strictly D, if they're bald and big, and wear a hoodie, so be it......

Oz is a Turkish national with deep connections to political parties back in Turkey. He also finances and supports his family at over 9 properties back in Turkey. He got his money from scamming Americans out of funds with bogus diet and penis pills. Yet this guy is a good representation of Pennsylvania? WTF are you on?

you might want to do a little more reading about your reality tv star: https://www.webmd.com/a-to-z-guides/news/20220505/columbia-cuts-ties-dr-oz
​
In 2015, when he testified before the Senate about his endorsement of “miracle” cures, a group of medical professionals sent a letter to Columbia that demanded that Oz be fired, according to Vox.
“Dr. Oz has repeatedly shown disdain for science and for evidence-based medicine, as well as baseless and relentless opposition to the genetic engineering of food crops,” the doctors wrote. “Worst of all, he has manifested an egregious lack of integrity by promoting quack treatments and cures in the interest of personal financial gain.”

I'm a moderate who leans Democrat and I think Fetterman is a terrible candidate, and if he was running against a normal human being instead of the walking carpetbagger shitbox that is Dr.Oz, he'd probably be losing but a lot.

"Being Progressive" isn't a stance. I've yet to hear him talk about what he stands for outside of legal weed.
He lived off a trust fund for decades, so he can't relate to you and I at all.
His work attendance as Lt. Governor was atrocious.
He ran a kid down with a shotgun and held him at gunpoint because he thought he heard gunshots.
He "showed up at crime scenes" by his own admittance. To what? Bother the police and EMTs?
He wants to get rid of life sentences.
He's getting none of the endorsements that Shapiro is getting, why is that?
His health problems don't make him a bad candidate, but they sure are concerning.
His five point plan starts with "make more shit in America." Seriously.
He's just not a good candidate and would be getting obliterated by any Republican with a pulse and likely will the next cycle unless he gets primaried.
Illustrious_Air_1438 t1_irzi2zx wrote
There's a reason he and Dr Oz are running campaigns without any substance. It's because most voters don't actually care about policy. You might be an exception, but he's trying to appeal to the average voter.

Any? One constitutionally required parts of his job is being on the Board of Pardons. He has a 100% attendance rate there. There ya go, evidence he did his job. Guess you'll admit you were wrong now.

Great, that's awesome. How often do they meet? Based on what I see on their website it's 4 days once a quarter.
What about the stuff addressed in the article? How he only worked 5 hour days 3 days a week? That doesn't counter that point.
You're just going to say "See, I told you it wasn't enough" but the truth is what you said doesn't counter that article in any way. He attended 16 meetings a year for 4 years. That's not impressive, that's bare minimum.
tryin2staysane t1_is8vwj7 wrote
So again I'll ask, what does need to be shown for you to admit your assertion is inaccurate? You asked for one thing, I gave the lowest possible bit of evidence. Tell me what it would take. Or be honest with both of us and admit you don't care if there is evidence to show its inaccurate. You don't like Fetterman because of his policies, and you'll vote for him because he's not Oz. You don't want to be shown that your assumption is wrong because you don't want to have to find an honest reason to dislike him.

Fetterman and just about every Democrat has said they support an "Assault Weapon Ban" which in practice means banning any semi-automatic rifle. That's an actual enumerated right in the US Constitution. Not a made up one like being able to kill an unborn child in the womb. And he wants to take it away.

I could continue to copy pasta your rebuttals and give what I would argue are comparable replies. In the end, we'll never see eye to eye. Not sure if you'd be surprised or not to find out that I too own several guns. So I'm not anti 2nd amendment, just view it differently.
The only 2 things I'll say is that 1- I just don't live in fear like you do. And 2- I would love if people put as much effort and passion into helping your fellow man as you do worshiping guns. The world would be a better place.
Take care though. Unlike the guy who was afraid to converse with me, you took the time and explained your argument. I can respect that.

The only fear I have is of a foolish super majority selling out their own rights.
> And 2- I would love if people put as much effort and passion into helping your fellow man as you do worshiping guns.
Claiming someone is worshiping a tool simply because they verbally defend their rights to keep them is insulting. That's just as stupid as claiming someone who argues for being pro choice worshiping baby killing.
> The world would be a better place.
That's highly debatable as the only people who would be disarmed are the law abiding.

Cheers and have a great day!

Where is the right to have semi automatic rifles?
Specifically the 2a doesn't specify which arms one could reasonably argue there can be restrictions. Unless you're the national guard but I know you guys like to ignore the whole milita bit

The part that says: the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
A law saying you cannot have a semi-auto would clearly be infringing on that right.
> Unless you're the national guard but I know you guys like to ignore the whole milita bit
The line referencing the militia does not say that you must be a member of a militia. It's an example of one reason why the right has been enumerated.
It'd be like a line saying, "*A well educated populace being necessary to the industrial base, the rights of the people to attend public school..." being just one example of why education should be provided to children. It doesn't mean that working in a factory would be the only reason you would have a right to an education.

That is if Fetterman even debates Oz. The dude is a coward, I bet he debates Oz from his basement.

Many would love too. Too bad his handlers won't even let him actually talk to anyone.
Probably scared that he'll just start drooling and not be able to form a complete sentence due to the stroke.

You get 2 out of 3 points for the correct use of the words "to" and "too".

Actually the dude would ask you why you think he's a clown.
By the way calling people "libtards" when they can flip it around and replace the "lib" with "re" and it be ten times as insulting as your original insult has got to be the biggest blunder I've seen from you guys...

When he registered to run for Senate, did Fetterman have to fill out a second application for the grapefruit sized lump on the back of his neck as well?

I don't care if Fetterman's stroke was so bad that he can't count higher than 2 or wipe his own ass. There's no way in hell I'm voting for a reality tv star who made his money shilling snake oil supplements and pushing pseudoscience. They could 'Weekend at Bernie's' John Fetterman and his corpse would still get my vote.
