Former Mansfield president got a unanimous approval to get the Shippensburg job permanently.

He has made a very good impression here.

That is true if you want public education to survive at all levels.

Josh Shapiro has to be pretty giddy.

Josh Shapiro has to be pretty giddy.

It amazes me that a) there is such a difference in what each party presents as the most pressing issues, and b) parties keep nominating/electing candidates who are more against the opposition than they are for any one thing.

I know, right? I feel like Mastriano / McCormick / McSwain are caricatures of what democrats think republicans are.

Honestly, I told myself I could live with Corman if he won. Then again the last time I told myself something similar we got Tom Corbett.

...and with Kenyatta campaigning on behalf of both of them things are lookin' up in PA.

...and with Kenyatta campaigning on behalf of both of them things are lookin' up in PA.

Until they start talking about Mumia Abu Jamal and Lia Thomas, RGGI and the horrendous PA response to Covid. And we'll see what's happening with the economy and Ukraine, Will the radical abortion restrictions, and the Jan 6th committee be enough ? especially in light of the Durham investigation conclusions on how the whole Russia thing was nonsense. TBH I'd rather have a moderate governor, Shapiro won't be moderate - And even if he wins, what will the state house look like ?

[Fightingscot82]

Mastriano is killing it in rural PA. Suburban conservatives aren't fans. Shapiro is almost as liberal as Mastriano is conservative, but my God to get anything done in politics you have to work with the other side. I feel like we keep electing people whose attitude only exacerbates the gridlock.

Don't blame me, I'm registered independent.

Given his crazy Christian Nationalist messaging, I won't be surprised if some borderline anti-Semitic stuff comes from his team, probably something along the lines of Shapiro can't be for Christian values because he's not Christian.
