Reply to comment by gentlestuncle in Analysts entirely misread the Fetterman-Oz debate. These graphs show how wrong they were by immigrantpatriot

Lamb's "we have to work with the Republicans" crap just doesn't fly anymore.

Let's face it 15 years ago Lamb would've been a republican. That's far more of a critique of the current republicans than it should be

I imagine lamb shoving his third steak into his mouth at a fancy restaurant washing it down with expensive wine and you ask if you can have a bread roll.

The button on his shirt busts off and he burps loudly in your face while telling you, 'Sorry kid, but we just don't have the resources for that right."

He then eats a live child in one bite while rubbing his bloated belly.

You walk outside and see Fetterman working as a garbage man who sees you bummed out and offers you a hit from his blunt.

That's how I viewed this race, and yes I'll take the blunt over whatever the hell the elitist first option is.

Fetterman literally had a fine dining restaurant in his basement

So you’re not voting for Biden if he runs again considering he has said the same?

So all the things in the past that have been accomplished in a bipartisan manner you disagree with?:

You are a hard leftist I’m guessing? No room for anything except total government authority as long as it’s from the left?

Would have voted for Lamb because he has a (D) beside his name.

You people would rather have stalemate in Congress, stalemate that would have prevented the Americans with Disabilities Act from being passed,

You people would rather have something like CHIP not passed.

The Gang of 14 made sure that SCOTUS picks had votes from each side, until Dems "Nuked" the deal in 2013. It was good while it lasted.

2010 Obama tax deal. Would have not happened unless Obama had agreed to work with Repubs. If he had not only the upper class would have continued to see tax cuts instead of the middle class that Obama wanted as well.

​

But go ahead, downvote me because you people are so fucking partisan that you would rather see nothing get done instead of something.

What a dishonest and asinine way to frame the discussion.

Hardly.

If someone claims that working across the aisle is something they hate to hear a candidate talk about then they must be against any form of bipartisanship.

It's called blatant partisanship with a dash of hypocrisy sprinkled on top.

I agree that that's probably the case. But that's not what was said. He said he hates the message.

And honestly, fuck your argument. The GOP has bargained in bad faith for the last 30 years, making concessions when they had to and then backing out of their side of deals for later. You want it both ways, the left compromises and you thumb your nose at them. You're going to find it much harder to do that with the changes in the voting blocks.
