He could have waited until after the election. Why now?
Saw the writing on the wall, I guess. Maybe the Republican Party wanted him out in favor of a younger, more energetic person who doesn’t come across like a spineless weasel. Who knows?
He’s not up for election till 2022. It makes no sense to announce this now. He’s trying to get in front of something. I think the PP correct. He’s hoping to rebrand. Nope, not happening. PA may still go Red this election but not next.
What on earth makes you say PA will go red this election? Have you looked at a single poll?
I'm PP. I said it MAY go red. PA demographics are trending older, whiter, less educated. Lot's the young people leave: $7.25 minimum wage, 87th lowest teacher pay, GOP rollback of environment regulations, polluting the water and air. I could go on. I've been volunteering 20 hours week in PA to turn it blue. Of course I want it to happen but racism is a work of wonder there.
PP - I know the racism of PA well. It’s a god awful place I left once I turned 18. That said....polls are strong. Biden will get more votes - only question is whether GOP in legislature can successfully steal the election.

NP but are you not concerned about GOP and Russian shenanigans subverting the will of the people?
PP yes, I agree the GOP is def going to try to steal the election in PA. zero doubt abt it. Thank god PA has a Dem Gov and Dem AG. PA is actually a blue state with just a bunch of deplorable morons living in the middle of it. I am afraid but I have not given up that we can fight of the GOP monsters who are trying to end democratic elections.

Again, I’ve been volunteering for the last 2 years in PA and have so much respect for those who are trying to make it a better place to live. And I have hope they will flip the state house.
But back to Toomey, something is up. It will come out. It always does.
Hats off to you and all the others working to turn PA blue and ensure that it can be a state for science, strong schools, and working families.

I don't think you tell colleagues anything in DC unless you want it to leak.

He might be trying to distance himself from representative Scott Perry who wouldn’t denounce Q anon.

That seems to be the working hypothesis. That the Lincoln Project will absorb the RVAT and become the basis of a new center-right political party, given the Republican Party 1) won't be viable post-Trump and 2) won't have Russia to support it financially anymore.
+1. A fiscally Conservative party without the trump crazies.
The problem is, without the racists and White nationalists, it won't be viable nationally. Most Americans like things like the USDA, the EPA, the USPS, the FHWA and a host of other agencies and programs that help them and make conditions assured for business to grow and develop. Sure, there could be disagreements around the edges around how much the military budget should be or how much aid to send abroad.
