Does any of this matter? A poll I saw today shows Republicans surging again. It's all about inflation and the economy, and of course that's all Biden's fault. Abortion matters less, guns hardly matter at all, and preserving democracy doesn't even rate a mention.

Fetterman/Oz is like a car crash that I can’t look away from. . Oz is a charlatan and Fetterman is a dolt. That either of these clowns will be a Senator speaks to why the two party system needs to go the way of the dinosaur.

Take the dolt that isn't a self-serving lying sack of crap (and an awful physician, to boot) every day of the week and twice on Sunday. And, FWIW, the two "parties" aren't, currently the biggest problem. Only one of the "parties" is actively working to dismantle American democracy. Even attempting to equate these two guys is ridiculous. But, you know that. The "party" that puts up Herschel Walker really can't be throwing stones, can they? Oh, right. You also have Hawley, Boebert, MTG, Goemert, etc. And, those folks, apparently, are just fine with you folks. But, yeah, Fetterman is the "dolt."

How can any American be ok with their family’s healthcare decisions being dictated by “a local politician”? Let that sink in and consider where it might stop. I am not sure one needs to take anything other than this out of that debate. What a chilling thing to say. Are we China? The Soviet Union? Seriously, WTF! I thought America is about “freedom”.

Are we China? The Soviet Union? Yes. We're not that far from sham elections like in Russia.

You also have Hawley, Boebert, MTG, Goemert, etc. And, those folks, apparently, are just fine with you folks. But, yeah, Fetterman is the "dolt." Did you watch? I watched segments of it. But, I've also paid attention to what those two men have done and said over the past several months. To point at Fetterman as the lesser of the two candidates is, objectively, preposterous. Oz can't unsay what he's said about the election nor can he take back his ridiculous take on abortion in the debate in question. That said, Oz is, clearly, all for dismantling the two party system if it serves him personally (par for the course for "Republicans" at this point). Not in a way that is an improvement, mind you. But, by deceit, violence and insurrection. Maybe the Right is so used to that sort of traitorous rhetoric that they've become numb to it. If you've normalized that sort of thing, find a mirror and a copy of the Constitution ASAP. Remind me what Fetterman has done that remotely rivals that in any way? Is he polished and brilliant? Nope. But, he's also not in support of dismantling American democracy. He's also actually from the state he's running to represent. And, like him or not, he clearly shares the concerns of his constituency. You're playing yourself by putting those two men in the same category in any political regard. It's just sadly hilarious to me that someone that supported Trump is now clutching their pearls about the quality of any candidate running for elected office. Welcome to what your side introduced and made normal and continues to vociferously support. Have you seen Matt Gaetz or Madison Cawthorne or, literally, anyone that folks on the Right really rally behind? Remember when it was "ridiculous" that a well educated bartender ran for office? Good times.

Could you humor me and state your top 4 or 5 most important issues going into these midterms?
