Came here to say this. And re: HRC, she sat for 10 hours (11?) of testimony under oath and took it to her inquisitors. She wasn't hiding behind an armada of falsehoods and shady lawyers. |
Are we to believe the GOP has evolved since their days of referring to Barack “Hussein” Obama? |
I would be very surprised if the “f*ck your feelings” party had gained any open mindedness at all in the intervening years. Will some vote for anyone with the (R) after their name? Yes. But a lot of them look askance at all those “infidel” religions. |
I would guess most people don’t know Dr Oz is Muslim. It’s not like his name has Hussain in it. And the Democrats aren’t as bigoted as Republicans so they’re not going to use it like a campaign slur the way the GOP did with Obama (who was Christian anyway.) |
Yeah, the fact that he's Republican means that he is not being treated nearly as poorly as that horrible, horrible Congresswoman Ilhan Omar (because she's a Democrat).
|
Trump still does this till date and GOP is fine with it. |

Good Christ. I thought Oz was a cardiologist, but it seems more like he’s a proctologist* given that’s showing himself to be a complete a-hole. *no shade to real proctologists; the work they do is invaluable like all medical specialities. |

Here's where things stand in the key races, in order of most likely to flip. Could gain PA (R to D), but lose GA (D to R).

Georgia has remained close, and incumbent Democratic Sen. Raphael Warnock has done well so far. Republicans acknowledge that earlier efforts to try and paint Warnock as a "radical" were a mistake. It's tough to make the pastor at Ebenezer Baptist Church — the same post once held by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. — whose ads have featured him smiling with a beagle, look like a bad guy. Instead, the attacks to come are more likely to be simply making Warnock out to be a Democrat whose votes are out of step with Georgia. But Georgia is about as purple as it comes now, and Warnock's Trump-backed opponent, Herschel Walker, has his issues as a candidate. Still, the former NFL and University of Georgia running back has high name ID and appeal among Republicans. And Walker will likely benefit from the gubernatorial race of Republican Brian Kemp, who is currently favored to win reelection. This one will likely be a nail-biter.
